United States“X-Mapper Pro” is a helper application for X-Plane Desktop flight simulator. Connecting to a computer running X-Plane makes your iPhone/iPad work as a useful flight-assistance device including map tracker, flight yoke and full-equipped avionics panel. *This is a LEGACY APPLICATION for backward compatibility with older versions of X-Plane. If you are using X-Plane 11 as well as X-Plane 10.40 or later, TRY NEWLY RELEASED X-MAPPER TNG (free App with paid upgrade) INSTEAD. *This application requires full or demo version of X-Plane 9 or 10 Desktop (for Mac/Windows/Linux). CANNOT used with X-Plane Mobile for iPhone/iPad. MAP TRACKER The location and heading of the simulated aircraft will be displayed in the map with an orange icon when settings completed and network connection established. As “Pro” edition bonus feature, the flight path is also drawn on the map as orange lines. Other map tracker features are as ones with “X-Mapper Lite.” FLIGHT YOKE Touching and holding on the white slider activates motion sensor that allows you to control your aircraft like as 3-axis joystick. It has following features: –Controlling the aileron and the elevator by the tilt of your device –Controlling the rudder by the slider for taxiing and crosswind takeoff/landing –Releasing the slider disables the motion sensor and maintains trim-neutral –Auto-calibrated elevator allows you comfortable tilt-operation The motion sensor is enabled only while touched on, so you may let your device down anytime without unexpected consequence. It is convenient for auxiliary control in IFR flight. THROTTLE CONTROLLER With the black slider, you can control the throttle as well as watch the auto-throttle feedback. This smart controller allows you fine tuning of jet engines without expensive dedicated devices. Also, there is a handy reverser button for smooth operation at landing and rejecting takeoff. AVIONICS PANEL The full-equipped avionics panel allows you to operate various radio and autopilot equipment. It is useful especially for IFR operations that was bothering the pilot in busy. Also, you can setup the autobrake even if omitted in some cockpit panels. MULTI-DEVICE CONNECTION You can connect up to four iPhone/iPad devices running multiple X-Mappers at the same time. Download and install X-Mapper Pro for each device. No additional payment will occur to download for devices belongs to the same App Store account.

Open “Obtain X-Plane” from the ⓘInfo Menu for ordering the full version or downloading the free Demo version. Please refer to help message in the application for detailed instructions.
Controlls
The app aims to map but the most wondeful features are the flight controlls and the auto pilot. The radio stack is also a great help!
United StatesGreat for nav, comms & autopilot!!!
Setting radios and A/P in X-Plane can be cumbersome and distracting, never as easy as turning a knob or pushing a button in a real plane. This takes all of that hassle away, almost better than the real thing, allowing you to just fly the plane. If for no other reason, that makes it totally worth it. It should be standard equipment for X-Plane.
United StatesGreat tool
Love using this app, makes x-plane much more user friendly. Any word on an update with GPS inputs?
United StatesThe best avionics i have found
This is single handedly the best avionics (comm, autopilot, barometer, etc) panel for X-plane i have found. It doesnt require fancy graphics (although that’d be cool) but it gets the job done and fixes the issue of having to change frequencies or minute details with your mouse. now you can do it on the ipad! good stuff!
United StatesGreat... At first
Worked very well for one or two flights but now will not connect to computer properly. This is frustrating because now I will have to buy a joystick.
United StatesCrashes the plane.
The usage of radios or autopilot very rarely works, and when you launch the app, all flight control inputs from joysticks will be ignored. So unless you want to crash, don't get this app.
United StatesGreat but glitchy
Great companion app with useful functionality. Fully integrates with most aircraft autopilot systems, but may not work with some that have their own operational plugins (x737, for example). I would give it 5 stars if it weren't so unstable. The app crashes my iPad Air repeatedly during use (restarts my actual iPad, not just the app). Happens especially when moving/zooming the map. Fix that and it's a winner!
United States
Version 1.2.3 added instructions to setup X-Plane 11. Note that using this application with X-Plane 11 is unsupported though you can still try it with certain settings for the mean time. X-Mapper Pro isn’t guaranteed to work with future versions of X-Plane 11 and no more supports multi-device connection. As the release of this update, functional enhancement and compatibility maintenance will be discontinued on X-Mapper Pro. We are sorry for the unavoidable discontinuation of the legacy application. Instead, we are introducing a successor application “X-Mapper TNG” with formal support for X-Plane 11 and unlimited multiple device support. If you are using X-Plane 11 as well as X-Plane 10.40 or later, please try the alternative application for free with paid upgrade.
