Hey all. I have an old PDA by todays's standards, a dell axim x51. I would like to use it as a gps module connected to the flight sim. I tried searching, but am getting nowhere fast.

I do have FSUPIC registered version, wide fs, fsx.

I have moderate knowledge in working with computers and some programing.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

I have used "Sidewindow" http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Communications/SideWindow-63382.shtml
This works a treat. I have used it as a hand held CDU using Prosim737 just to try it out and it works great.

Kind Regards

Bernie.
