Use my mac laptop for...?

Hello! Can I use my Mac laptop at the sido of my PC to show instruments, charts etc? Maybe a VFR map or Littlenavmap. But how to connect so it gets info from my pc?

You might be able to run it as a 2nd monitor with an HDMI cable.

Like using one of the ports of my RTX-card, and then via adapter? I’ve got an multiadapter, but I think its for output only (or?). Otherwize only USB-C ports (MBP M1 13")

Looks like it might be output only, yes. I found this discussion though - https://www.quora.com/Can-I-use-my-MacBooks-monitor-as-an-external-display-to-a-PC

Looks like it might be more trouble than it’s worth tbh!

Can i connect any other useful app via network? Little Navmap or so? Something else?

With a second as of your laptop, in windows u can use it for a extended desktop with an extra wifi adapter through project on screen but im not sure if this works with a mac laptop
If it works you can drag an extra view onto it or gps stuf from the sim, of course it need some miracast which i know tp link has these and they work fine.

You can use Little nav map via network. It can connect to a remote computer … I tested it some time ago to use my laptop as LNM display. Worked as intended …

Yes, I think it turns the hosting machine effectively into a webserver, and you connect to a view of LNM via a browser. I do this sometimes on a tablet.

Use spacedesk server on your windows pc and spacedesk Client on your mac.
Its free en simpel to use. Your laptop act then as a second screen for your desktop. It even works via WIFI (on the same network)
