Hi,
we have the Air Connect Interface to send Traffic from Powerflarm to skydemon via WLAN.
I need a Hardware connected via WLAN and RS232 to Skydemon to steer my Autopilot.

Every old Handheld GPS (e.g Garmin Pilot III from 1997) can send this signals from the progammed track to my Autopilot. (TruTrak of Trio)

Any change to realize this Hardward and bind it to skydemon ?
Achim

@Markus
I see your point. However, as of today my Garmin 795 is delivering the NMEA data.
I see no difference in using the 795 for this or to use my iPad...... It is simple a question of getting away with HW that is absolutely inflexible in usage and comes from an age where this kind of HW was "superficial" also with the funny license model to get actual data.......

Now I am doing my routing/planning on the ipad using SD, and have to duplicate this on my 795..... This makes no sense at all.......

gasoline is also very dangerous but not having it aboard is even worse :-)

There is a major and HUGE difference in using a Garmin 795 for an iPad.
The Garmin 795 is certified as Non-TSO GPS source in Trio and TruTrak (now BendixKing) autopilot installations.
The iOS devices are not and by good reasons. For me they are only and solely applicable as absolute emergency fallback.
