Hi guys, I want to create an Arduino project which reads data from EuroScope and creates respective flight strips. Is there any way I can read from the proxy that vpilot reads or would I have to use the plugin system?

Cool project! I think the best option would be to create a plugin. This gives you much more information than you would get from the Euroscope proxy ([Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned runway, SID/STAR, ETA, etc.).

 

What kind of printer do you have? It should be possible to print directly from the plugin using MFC, with almost any printer. I actually wrote a plugin a few years ago for use with a USB thermal receipt printer. Unfortunately I can't find the source code for it, and the strip layout is hardcoded, but if you are interested I can send you the .dll.
