Hello!! I am looking to create a display using the 3.5" Nextion Basic display along with an Arduino to display (Top Half) Attitude Display and (Bottom Half) Heading. I saw mention of the Nextion awhile ago, but couldn't seem to find anything else about it. Is it possible to use the Nextion as a display for MobiFlight? Thanks in advance!

I would say.... NO.

Without a Link i just google and see this.... https://www.amazon.de/Aihasd-480X320-English-Intelligent-Raspberry-3-5/dp/B01N3YRKKK
Correct ?


Thats a TFT. Mobiflight just support basic 7 Seg Displays OR 1-4 Line LCD Displays. Not Displays like Monitors with a high Pixel resolution !

So to handle those Displays there must be pretty sura a firmware/library on the Mega. And thats not the case if you use it as a Mobiflight Board with MF Firmware!
Good Luck !
