Thank you Sushil! It means a lot brother. 🤗

This is such a great idea that one wonders why it wasn't already created before. And to have the knobs work - WOW!!! So many things for a person to truly get into flying. What a great time to be simming!!!

I myself own a Cessna 172 panel built with Saitek/FIP gauges, a COM/NAV/ADF set as well as an AP module (also published in PC Pilot magazine); and I must say that the hardware you shown us is indeed a next step in creating realism. With the extension of GNS 430/530 hardware, added recently, it makes my VFR flying in MSFS world as realistic as it can be. I love when a "plane" comes together 😉 It gives me so much fun. Many thanks for this video, great to see!

Fantastic review. I own the G5 panel and have configured it for a number of aircraft modifying the parameters on the Garmin 5 instrument in Air Manager and using a generic Air Speed indicator, also with modifiable speed and gauge parameters. As you said in your review, these panels are works of art!

Beautiful hardware indeed! Thanks for the video.

i have had this panel the Gen 1 for over a year, love it!

The next step is build a replica plane in your gaming room where you can change the cockpit, seats, wings, tail and surroundings haha 😎 Thx for sharing this beautiful piece of hardware!

This is a classic! Loved it! Cheers

Oho my friend. Very nice stuff. Thank you for that. Take care.

very nice looking. Great quality. My problem is I fly VR but also I change my plane alot.

Excellent update.

Thanks Pa!

Great. IT should be available for the Chancellor 414 but with all gauges even the Garmin 😀

This looks very nice, and overlaying what is basically an Air Manager display with "working" hardware adds a tad more realism. However - the greatest drawback to these kind of addons with MSFS 2020 is that MSFS 2020 does not have the ability to remove the virtual cockpit in the same way that FSX, Prepar3D and XPlane do. So the immersion and realism is largely lost by having a fixed hardware panel such as this, as well as a "moving" cockpit panel showing the same instruments (and a few more) behind it on the main screen. If MSFS 2020 adds the ability to remove the virtual cockpit panel display this will be great. If MSFS 2024 does not have that ability, it will be a crime against cockpit builders.

Not ideal, but you can modify the camera position data, so it clips past the instruments like this simmer does kzread.info/dash/bejne/e3p-xqybqpatcZc.html.

👉🏻 It appears that there is no EGT marker knob. 😢

I was just looking at that. Still very nice

It's too bad MSFS doesn't have a forward view without the panel like FSX.

You need a mortgage to get them

I don’t See that as a must have since the future is VR and not dragging instruments out of the simulation. Your road means you build a full Cockpit at the end and mine is to dive into the the simulation. I would invest in the ultimate immersion rather than into real instruments

MSFS isn’t supporting a full view without instruments so thanks but no thanks
