The Flightscope Mevo+ golf launch monitor & home golf simulator systems or kits
Mevo Plus System Requirements
Mevo Plus is most commonly used with the Flightscope Mobile Apps which are FS Golf and FS Skills. There is also a mobile app for E6 Connect. To use the FS apps on a Windows PC you would have to run some sort of emulator.
The only time you would use the Mevo Plus with a PC is when running full PC versions of E6 Connect, Creative Golf 3D and TGC 2019.
Rather than publish a minimum system requirements list, Flightscope prefer a list of recommended system specs. These are the system configurations that are recommended for Mevo Plus to run smoothly using one of the integrated PC programs (E6, TGC 2019 or Creative Golf 3D):
Here is a list of recommended PC specifications for a computer to run Golf Simulator Programs with the Flightscope Mevo Plus Launch Monitor:
Processor (CPU)
Intel i5 (or newer)
RAM
8GB +
Graphics Card (GPU)
Nvidia 1070 Graphics Card or equivalent (Dedicated GPU with DirectX 11 Support)
Hard Drive Space
25 GB
Operating System
Windows 10 (64 bit)
Internet Connection
Required
You will see that these requirements are a lot more powerful and premium than those listed for Skytrak, especially the 8GB of RAM and the NVidia GTX 1070 graphics cards. They are of course ‘recommended’ specs rather than minimums though. A ‘recommended’ setup for Skytrak may be somewhat similar.
You will find a list of minimum requirements for some older FS software that included a 1GHz CPU processor, 2GB of RAM and the OS of Windows Vista (very old). However these specs seem quite outdated now so I wouldn’t recommend using a setup like this.
You must also look up the system requirements of your chosen golf simulation program in addition to those of the launch monitor.
For example, you may wish to play the PC version of Trugolf’s E6 Connect with Mevo Plus, but you’ll find that both Flightscope and Trugolf will publish system requirements for this combination. You must check that your machine fits the specifications in both lists.
Check out the published system requirements for the individual simulation programs later in this post.
Mevo Plus can be used on tablets, iPads and smartphones, using the Flightscope FS Apps. The hardware compatibility is listed below.
Apple:
iPhones / iPads with:
iOS 12 or later using Bluetooth LE 4.0 (roughly the iPhone 5s and later models, and the iPad 5th generation and later)
Android:
Android 6.0 or later (devices made in 2015 or later) with Bluetooth LE 4.0
It is worth noting that the E6 Connect license that comes bundled in with the Mevo Plus at the time of writing is an iOS app version only. This means you couldn’t use it with an android device. Android users would need to either purchase an Apple device or the full E6 computer version to use E6 Connect.
You’ll also need to make sure you have enough space in your golf simulator room to accommodate the Mevo Plus, which requires extra room compared to other launch monitors.
