I found it straightforward to connect Condor 2 to my XCSoar running on a Samsung tablet.
However! It is not sending the GPS fix through to Condor.
On the Device page it shows that "Condor Soaring Simulator on TPC port 4353" is sending everything, GPS Fix included.
And, indeed, the altitude and vario on my XCSoar screen perfectly match the altitude and vario on my Condor 2 cockpit instruments.
But the GPS fix just sits at my home. (And I'm flying a task in which I took off from my glider club, which is 62 miles away.)
Any ideas why the GPS Fix shows up on the Devices page as connected, but does not show up on the XCSoar screen?

Re: No GPS Fix Using XCSoar
You have to disable the tablet’s internal GPS. I forget whether you do that in xcsoar ‘devices’ page or within the tablets settings itself.

Re: No GPS Fix Using XCSoar
in xcsoar you can also turn off the device that uses the internal GPS
XCSoar -> Config -> Devices -> 'Built in GPS & Sensors' -> Disable
