Hi, guys!

Question for you, how do I get real weather like winds, clouds, ect. to show on xavion for x-plane since now I'm using real weather which updates every hour from the internet? Thanks!

Umm….I don't think Xavion does anything with weather even in the full version for real world flying.  It's an emergency airport finder.

 

But this link might be of help to you:

Xavion has to be connected to an ADS-B receiver to display weather.  Not sure if or how that can happen with X-Plane.

Xavion is not really intended for use in a simulator. It is a supplement to a real cockpit, and yes, one of its primary functions is to locate alternate runways in the event of an emergency.

 

I'd honestly recommend something like AirTrack for iPad or XHSI for a laptop.

I have to disagree with this statement. If that were true, then why would Laminar offer an X-Plane only version of the app for $9.99?
