    Software that adds extra realism to your favourite flight simulator. Trigger actions in the simulator directly from your tablet, phone, or web app using switches, buttons, and a virtual knob. 

    ❤️ Why you'll love LiftBox?


    • FPS friendly
      LiftBox is fetching data in a way that is not affecting your simulator. We paid strong attention during development to make it as light as possible.
    • Dual push-pull knob handling
      Works well for Airbus and Boeing giving you extra experience. You can use touch virtual knobs or print one with 3D printer (requires additional purchase).
    • No additional software required
      You only use software provided by LiftBox - one app that runs on your PC, one app that runs on your mobile device. No additional software - no extra cost.
    • Open source aircraft configuration
      LiftBox comes with preconfigured profiles for multiple planes. Can’t find profile of your favourite aircraft? Go ahead - create one and share it with your friends!

    🔨 What can you use LiftBox for?


    • Autopilot
      Manage your autopilot. LiftBox is preconfigured to map Boeing, Airbus and GA autopilot panels as accurate as possible.
    • Lights
      Need to switch lights quickly? No problem - with LiftBox you can do this. No more moving mouse around your virtual cockpit to find that switches while taxing! By default we support Boeing, Airbus and GA light switches.
    • Radio
      Need to switch frequency? No problem! Go ahead and do this on radio panel. Radio supports COM1, COM2 and NAV1 depending on an aircraft you're flying.
    • Transponder
      Got new SQUAWK code? You have to switch to mode C when entering runway? Do this with single click on your physical device.
    • ... and much more
      This is just the start. We'll add new panels in the future (APU, landing gear, etc). Come join us and tell what you need the most :)

    it is an amazing add on I am only giving it four stars because the lights dont completely work with the FBW a320 and I wish there was a way to toggle all 4 original landing lights for PMDG

    FlyingArtalmost 3 years ago

    Hi, thank you ❤️ Can you please tell me which lights doesn't work? And what version of FBW are you using? Sometimes things may stop working due to airplane SDK update. I'll release new profile update soon so I'll fix this issues

    Hi, when will there be a documetation on how to create own profiles? At the moment this software is not really useful. Thx

    FlyingArtabout 3 years ago

    Hi. I will work on that somewhere around next month. Currently there is a lot of interest in new features. Very few users ask about custom profiles. So my focus goes to new features first. I'll most probably also update profile builder so it'll be easier to create new profiles.

    I bought this without fully reading through everything... I wanted a UI where I could input radio frequencies via a keypad or just use the keyboard on my ipad. This app only lets you toggle active frequency unless you have their 3D printed knob then you can change frequencies. Why not use the same virtual rotary knob in the autopilot section for the radio at least? UPDATE: Thanks to the responses I was able to find the virtual knob setting was not aware you have to activate it first as a setting. I am much happier with the product knowing I can change radio frequencies much easier now.

    Hi! It is possible to change stby frequencies using virtual knob. I don’t know why you can’t see that option. Contact me in private if issue still occurs, we’ll try to figure it out

    With virtual knobs enabled, you need to scroll up and down on the sides of the boxes.
