Now you are ready to use and enjoy


HANDLING / USAGE NOTES & INFORMATIONS

  • Don´t worry about the red "!" circles if config is running, these are programmed preconditions (logic) and normal
Mobiflight 011.jpg
  • For a second flight you need to restart the Fenix APP & Stop/Run Mobiflight config, otherwise Quartz won´t show right values
  • Vertical speed values will be correct shown only in the air or in cold & dark state (see Quartz limitations)
  • Display values will appear earliest if sitting in Fenix and MF config is on "RUN" & Quartz is running


Best to get it working is the following way (otherwhise it may not get synced)

1) start msfs and stay in the main menu
2) start fenix app
3) start mobiflight & quartz (if not already)
4) click MF and run the config (if not already)
5) start your flight & enjoy
