Flight Sim Remote Panel
- a copy of the X-Plane simulator should be running on your desktop or a laptop
- this application connects to it from an Android device and displays the flight instruments, hence the "remote panel" in its name.
This app offers 3 separate panels: each can be configured by selecting from 6 basic flight instruments. In addition, it includes a basic radio stack with a standard Bendix/King KM24 Audio Control panel and a dual KX155 NAV/COMM System.
With this app, you can extend your general airplane instrument panel onto an Android device; you can completely close your instrument panel on the X-Plane display and use that extra space for a larger terrain view or simply use it to show different instruments.
To use this application, your device needs to be connected to the same network as the host computer, which most likely already is when you are playing an X-Plane.
Please see the application website for more information on complete installation requirements which includes the X-Plane plugin: on the PC side, you need to add a custom plugin that communicates with this app. The plugin can be downloaded from this application's home website.
Please rate this application on its own merits and for what it is and how it works for you. For example, it is clearly stated that this app needs an X-Plane plugin, so don't give it a poor rating because you'd like to have something else (one that does not need that.) Yes, it does need few extra files on your PC and a few minutes of your time to make it all work
- but we simmers are aspiring pilots who should be able to handle such “complexity”, right?
If something did not work for you in some way, send me an email and I will try to help.
Also, if you have any question, problem or suggestion, please email me!
Happy flying!

It's an OK app & if you follow the plugin install instructions, it's easy to connect to X-Plane 11. Having used FS Radio Panel (Android) with FSX my expectations were high, but unfortunately this fell far short. The 6 different instruments have nice enough graphics and are legible, but the radio stack features and controls are blurry & frequency knobs are difficult to manipulate. I have it on a 10" tablet & I can't imagine running it on a smaller one. I give it 3 stars because it's free.
Well.. I gave you 5 stars, but it doesn't work, I inserted the IP address on this application, which x-plane 11uses in my Machine but it's not connecting, I wish there is a YouTube video, could clearly explain. 😊🙏
Works good after finding PC plugin on GitHub. The sites.google page from the app is unreachable on my phone or PC. Definitely need a tablet for this.
Cant connect to xp11. The connection times out or writes host unreachable. I have entered correct IP address and allowed all ports in windows firewall as well.
Didn't connect but I don't have the plugin. Unable to select port.
Brilliant. Needed better radio panel than the sum and this works great.
Brilliant. Does what it is designed to do and flawlessly.
A++ Does exactly what it claims.
Awesome little app that allows me to fly a 172 or other light aircraft, in Xplane11, in full screen without then 3D cockpit. I have 2x tablets linked showing up to 3 instruments on each...thanks for developing this app
The gauges are ok, the connection is simple but the radio stack is mushy and difficult to operate. They should have put higher definition pictures and bigger control surfaces, mine is a 8 inch screen and still impossible to use.
It should also allow the connection to the android device, now is useles for me as this app can be only connected to the pc
Best instrument panel out there! I just hope that in the future HSI and RMI could be added. I would pay for that.
Thank you
The concept is nice, worked first time, but the gauges aren't smooth and have a slow update rate making it unusable for precision flying.
I like it, but could use bigger buttons on a phone size display. Setup buttons are too small and half off the screen. Also would like to see a different air speed. If we could skin it I could use my Challenger II gauge. Other than that seems like a great app.
Must have for serious simmers and enthusiast of xplane.
I'm new to X-Plane and couldn't get this to run until I realized the plugin on the PC side is 32 bit and doesn't show up when running the 64 bit version. So started up the 32 bit exe for X-Plane and found it right away. Then it worked perfectly!
Slightly convoluted install process but the Remote panel worked first time. Excellent little App. Hope we get more like this...
The plugin does not work with v.10.25 (64 bit), and the app and it's libraries haven't been update for over a year now.
Great app no lag. Adds to the sim. Another ias panel for the faster planes would be great.
Used the free one for about 2 minutes and realized it wasn't cutting it and I needed the full version. Works great!
I was hoping to use this to control all of the radio navaids, but you can only control COM 1/2 and NAV 1/2 with it, not the NDB and DME equipment. Also, the pitch information shown on the attitude indicator does not correspond with what I see on the flight simulator screen for some reason. The plus side is that it is very fluid in terms of update rate. There is no perceivable lag. I hope the developer will continue to work on this as it does have a lot of potential to become a very useful product!
Well x plane in now 64bit so I tried contacting them but with no response really great app but for customer support really bad!!!
Needs another app to run this. Which doesn't work.
Works very well with X Plane 10. Would like to see different gauge skins. It seems the airspeed indicator defaults to Cessna markings. Any way to change these?
Great app but no updates for over a year. SHAME.
Ministro Cannot Satify...? Any fix for this?
This is awesome for my X-Plane 11 setup and my old andriod 3.2 tablet, that I was literally going to throw away. Thank you for this. If I could post a picture of how my setup looks, I would. Now to find another tablet to display the radio. Thank you sir for a great app. Just some resolution issue, but otherwise, really great. For the people complaining. A: It is free, stop whining. B: Read the help guide. It explains perfectly how to get it to work on X-Plane 11
