This script is to use Winwing A320 FCU on Linux (maybe Mac-OS) with X-Plane.
All buttons, leds and lcd displays work the same way as in X-Plane.
Tested with:
- XP12 under linux (debian trixie)
- XP11 under linux (debian bookworm)
- XP12 under MacOs (Sequoia 15.0.1)
- Toliss A319, A320Neo, A321Neo, A339, A340-600
Supported Hardware:
- Winwing FCU: fully supported
- Winwing EFIS-R: fully supported
- Winwing EFIS-L: fully supported
- clone the repo where you want
- copy
udev/71-winwing.rulesto/etc/udev/rules.d
sudo cp udev/71-winwing.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ - install dependencies (on debian based systems)
sudo aptitide install python3-hid libhidapi-hidraw0 - start script (with udev rule no sudo needed):
python3 ./winwing_mcdu.py.
- clone the repo where you want
- change into the directory
cd winwing_mcdu - install homebrew
- install dependencies
python3 -m pip install hid - brew install hidapi
- let hid find hidapi:
ln -s /opt/homebrew/lib/libhidapi.dylib .orln -s /usr/local/Cellar/hidapi/0.15.0/lib/libhidapi.dylib .wherever your libhidapi is installed - start script with:
python3 ./winwing_fcu.py.
- start X-Plane
- load Toliss A319
- start script as written above
- enjoy flying (and report bugs :-) )
Change brightness with the two brightness knobs in the cockpit.

Use at your own risk. Updates to the FCU can make the script incompatible. TODO: The data sent in the USB protocol by SimApp Pro has not yet been fully implemented, only to the extent that it currently works.
- remove libusb dependency
