    Thanks man, that looks good, I will try my elcheapo android tablet on this, it has 7 inch display.
    it looks like it runs along side a game, so unless our plugs ins change something to stop that data transfer , @yobuddy , do you know?

    I tagged yobuddy to ask him as well as he is a programmer of sorts and may know better. Motion requires a change in a line of code that may stop this program working, so he can have a look and advise.

    Sorry we use GameDash which is SimTools supported not sure if this would work along side.
    To me I would prefer people to get behind the GameDash and start helping us to support more games and idea in with the use of it.
    Then we would have a free application with a world of support and open options on what we can drive with it, most popular is the TM1638 board (at $8) its one of the cheapest option on the other side we mananged to use a porshe dashboard running steppers to reproduce the dash in Rfactor with analog guages looked very neat for sure.

    We also have our own graphical dash app too designed by a fellow member but little interest was shown by the members so not sure what has happened to it.

    @neotonight let us know if you need a hand, currently the only bummer is it only supports 15 games out of our 55.

    We have our own app, but not for apk device.
    SimTools has its own dashout app.

    I have tested the SLIMax Manager III with the EMU and it works perfectly (a donation is required to get the EMU license).

    As @hyper1966 says, it is ready to go.
