Cockpit Platform
An integrated home cockpit platform for managing flight simulator sessions and supporting tools from a tablet or phone. Initially supports the DA62 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and the Phenom 300 in X-Plane 12. The Cockpit Manager coordinates simulator startup, cockpit hardware, radio integration, camera controls, and optional AI services. Sessions can use a flight received from WingRally or a manually selected departure location, with the aircraft prepared in the desired initial state, including cold and dark. This project provides shared architecture, decisions, tasks, and progress for development across multiple codebases and AI coding sessions.

04 - RadioBridge
Independent optional radio subsystem owning radio state, PTT, audio, simulator-radio adapters, the T-Dongle gateway and peer Wi-Fi clients (Android, handheld and future fixed cockpit radio). Cockpit Manager handles lifecycle and displays RadioBridge-reported readiness only. DA62/MSFS is the first integration candidate; XP12/Phenom remains unqualified.

06 - WingRally Integration
WingRally and optional SimBrief route sources, Bridge 0.4 simulator detection and XP plugin, Navigraph/SimBrief dependencies, explicit simulator selection and flight handoff. Distinguish source capability, last inspected deployment and live aircraft qualification. Native WingRally-to-XP route export remains to be implemented.
