  1. Update: Just checked it, and it works! After some curiosities with Windows 10 Showing my PC's BT device as discoverable - although I switched that OFF again, and even rebootet the PC) Showing the incoming COM port as connected with my (SWITCHED OFF) Samsung TV I managed to let FSUIPC send its GPS data (all checked) to that COM port (it actually WAS that simple: just activate GPSout and select COM port) On my Android device I installed a "Bluetooth GPS Provider" (this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mobilej.btgps&hl=en) Selected the PC as my connected "GPS receiver" (had to switch off and on hardware GPS, as stated in the app's description) Saw incoming GPS data Started my navigation app (this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flugbetrieb.VFRnav&hl=en) Verified that it worked. Thank you!
  2. Yes, sorry, that's what I meant: My PC's BT will emulate a COMport, and on my Android device I will (try to) connect to that port. Which sentences are expected from my Android BT GPS app, I will have to check, but I guess there will be a way (either it fits right now, or there is an appropriate app for that). But from a quick search in this forum, I assume that there are people having succeeded in getting this running. So, I will acquire a licence and see how to manage it, too. Thanks so far.
  3. Honestly, I dod NOT read the manual... I was "naive" enough to think that I could install the "demo" (unregistered) version and at least see whether it does what I want. What I actually want is to take my Android device (the one I am using for real life flight navigation) and use it for FSX navigation, too. I'd like to have FSX' "GPS data" sent out over BT and received on my Android device as an "external BT mouse". As you confirmed that this is possible, I guess I will buy the registered version. Can I find the way to achieve this in the documentation, or can you point me to an appropriate thread in this forum? If I scan through this post , it seems as if I could simply "activate GPSout" in FSUIPC... and that's it. Is it really as simple as that?
  4. First of all, I downloaded and installed the module, but it seems as if it does "nothing" at all. (I planned to start with the unregistered version because I thought this would be a kind of time/function limited demo, but I cannot see what it does at all.) I'd like to know how I can configure FSUIPC (do I need the registered version for this?) to send GPS data from FSX to Bluetooth. Ok, I understood, it should be "to a COM port", but I cannot see anything about that. Is there a HOWTO or a description on that?
