IFD100 Information

New member. Having trouble with transferring flight plan from I pad to 440. I understand that flight plans on foreflight can be transferred to 440. Is this true. Also, does any one have the FLTA option on their 44/ipad?

Thanks,

I am pasting this from my post on IFD Forum - more related to this  IFD100 Forum:

WOW!  Cannot wait to give this a go... 

I hate to be a pest, but when will the upgrade be available?! Is there any idea or projected date?

My Dual Electronics XGHP170 has ADS-B in via Bluetooth. Can I expect the traffic and weather to display on the IFD100?

No, the hotspot/client functionality still exists in 10.2.

AV-Simpson,

Is there any update to this yet ?

Thanks!

Any update on the release of v10.2, the release of the 550, and the IFD100 app? It's almost September!

Thanks Steve - Can't wait for v10.2 and the IFD100 iPad update.  Maybe in future update "Track Up" will be an option - probably has to come from Jepp??

Steve,

Jake or Simpson, I have an ifd 540 and an Aspen 1000 pro with an acu2 in my bonanza. Very happy with both except the screen on the aspen is small for my 60 yr old eyes. If I upgraded to an ifd 550, could I import gps nav data (glideslope and cdi) to display on the ifd 100/ipad along with the attitude to assist in flying an lpv approach. I realize that that the ifd550/100 is not approved as a backup attitude ref since it doesn't have a battery backup. I'm sure there are many other pilots with similar equipment. Thanks, Jim.

Will you be able to have two IFD 100's running with just one IFD 540

Thanks Steve.

What will be IFD100's capability to display OBS, and can this be toggled without changing the panel mounted display of active flight plan?

Another relevant data point is that Jepp reportedly was going to make its iPad FD app compatible with the IFDs.  Another Bonanza pilot was told recently, however, that the new CEO at Jepp has put all development efforts on hold; improvements to the FD app as well as presumably compatability between the app and the IFDs.

Unless something goes south in the next few weeks,  the combination of an IFD440 and an IFD100 will  be capable of displaying geo-referenced Jepp Charts on the IFD100.

That's a combo I use all the time right now.

Well that's true but also irrelevant. The STC that covers the IFD-series explicitly includes the G500/600. This is pretty typical - the STC newcomer is responsible for testing and showing compatibility and compliance.

I don't understand. The IFD integrates very nicely with the G500/600.

You can also just right click, and "open image in new tab". Most browsers will have some way to handle it.
