can i see my MSFS aircraft on that map?

4

Yes, if you enlarge the map! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Skyvector the web site has no synchronisation with MSFS capabilities. Does this “tool” transform Skyvector from a EFB to a moving map ?

6

Unfortunately No, it’s fixed and you have to move the map until you find where the plane is.

7

with no flight following sounds worse than vfr map, what is the benefit to have it in the game?

8

Have you used skyvector before? It has a lot of details that the VFR map does not.

The advantage is that it has more pages, and that it has more approach paths

So for now, nothing better than a real moving map (Skydemon, Foreflight) on an iPad :wink:

Another option for moving map.

What about navigraph? I think they have a moving map but you need to subscribe to their services for a fee. But their software looks cool. They also have charts etc.

Thank you very much for the mention! This add-on acts as like a template when you go do the official download page, it gives developers a chance to look at how it works and what else it can do. It’s essentially a smart in-sim browser that with enough work you could set to any webpage you want.

Since a few days a have the problem, that all my addons with customized fs base panels are shwoing only a grey window. SkyVector, LNM and even Advanced VFR Map. I cannot figure out what I have changed to couse this. Does anyone have similar problems and a solution?

I have followed DrawyuhYT and done everything as outlined. I did get Skyvector on the tool bar, but
it will not access skyvector on the map. What can I be missing?

Skyvector doesn’t allow be loaded from inside an iFrame anymore

I tried to use the template and put a substitute for my 3-degree Glidepath.

In CustomPanel.js I used:
self.iframeElement.src = ‘https://https://cheatography.com/uploads/boston_1610515322_3GP.jpg’;

It does not work. I think “js” is javascript but I am not even sure???
