Install guide Changelog
Signed installer

Verify Rohsam before installing.

The Windows installer is code-signed by the Rohsam publisher identity. Brand-new signed builds may still show SmartScreen reputation prompts until those files gain download history; verify the publisher as Rohsam Inc. or RohsamInc before continuing.

Publisher verification
Local only

No telemetry from the app.

The desktop app talks to MSFS or X-Plane over local loopback and to the joystick over USB. It does not send flight data, settings, or hardware details over the internet.
