I'm pretty happy with my setup so far. The only pain for me is the MFDs with the keypad in the way. In trackir you can lean over however I use EDTracker which is 90% trackir but doesn't do sideways sliding. I have a hat set up to do the slide but its not ideal.

Have you had any experience exporting the mfds to helios for use on a tablet?

Sadly not as in a VR user, however I do believe Alan has used Helios for his set up, so he might be a good point of call.

Not exporting MFDs to I-Pads or tablets, I'm afraid.

It can be done to an additional Monitor.

I am using spacedesk software that extends my samsung tablet as an additional monitor in windows. It should work just like an additional touchscreen monitior.

I just need to know how to export the mfds and set up the buttons around them. I haven't used Helios at all yet so not sure how you go about it.
