hello Neroni,
that would be even worth dedicating a laptop or windows tablet to.
But: no. LXSim only allows to replay igc files. There is no option to read-in nmea data directly (yet).
Hmm..
Maybe send LXNav an e-mail explaining how we are able to keep our recency up by using xcsoar and / or seeyou mobile with condor.
That very ability got me into condor in the first place as I am "too scared" to learn a new gadget or function on my own in a real sailplane without that second pair of eyes to keep a proper lookout.

This is what I read in the manual LXnav.
Thank you

2.1.8 Simulator
There are two options to stay in condition and familiar with your system. LXSim is free of
charge program, which you can download from www.lxnav.com or data from the Condor PC
flight simulator (www.condorsoaring.com) can be received via the RS232 port after entering
suitable passwords (see Chapter 5.1.15).
These features are extremely useful for pilots who want to learn about the system and also
wish to refresh their knowledge after a winter break. Please note that altitude data will be
sent from the simulator which means that real final glide training will be possible.
