Hi iniBuilds team,

I'm the developer of Remote CDU, a free add-on on flightsim.to (as TeeWoine) that puts the PMDG 737/777 CDU on a tablet. I'd love to build the same thing for your A350: the MFD and KCCU on an iPad, for people who fly from a desk or a home cockpit.

Most of it already works:

- the MFD image is mirrored from the pop-out window,

- every KCCU key works through your L:INI_MCDU1_* / L:INI_MCDU2_* variables, which is great.

The one missing piece is the cursor. Clicks on the MFD only reach the gauge through the mouse in the 3D cockpit, and the pop-out window doesn't accept clicks. So an external app can't select a field, a waypoint or a menu.

Would you consider exposing an external input for the MFD cursor? Any of these would be enough:

- L:vars (or a CommBus / client data event) for cursor X/Y in screen pixels plus a click, per side,

- or making the MFD pop-out window clickable.

This would also help home cockpit builders with a physical KCCU. I'm happy to test and to credit iniBuilds in my add-on.

Thanks for the great aircraft!

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out. I will forward this to the dev team for further consideration.

Thanks again!
