Very nice spanky! I read your article, sounded like a LOT of work. But I’m glad its paid off for you.

I really want to get away from the Saitek panels at some point. I think this may be where I start. Thanks BFG for the review.

Glad to hear it Jeroen. I tried to keep it simple and inexpensive as possible. The sheet aluminum was $20 and the 3/8 inch fiberboard was like $5. I think when I build my next one, I will use 1/2 inch plywood or CDX to back the aluminum to make the whole thing stronger. You know, I just measured the width I had available on the desk, made sure the 22 inch monitor for the gauges and the Saitek panels fit, and guessed at the height and that’s what I initially cut out the panel at. I cut the aluminum sheet a couple inches longer and higher and used a small hammer to bend it around the fiberboard. So with that and the screws around the edge, it all became one.
When I test mounted it to the desk with the monitor on the wall and sat down, I realized I had cut it too high as I could only see part of the screen on the wall. Which was good, better than too short. So I simply cut 2 inches off the top and I was in business. I’m actually planning to build another one. Already have a number of ideas for improvements. Good luck with your project when you start it. It was actually fun building it.

Thank you for the suggestion. I’ll give it a try though they have disabled USB for now due to problems. But wireless is still available.
PS. I also meany GPS 530. Senility is creeping up…

Question…why did you use the lower refresh rate for P3D? (psssssst…I’m not a tech guy.)

Hi all, Racketyjack here. 60 years old and living in Montana with my wife. First sim was Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe, then Aces of the Pacific. Didn’t get into civilian simming until someone on the Combatace forums mentioned FSX was on sale on Steam a couple years ago I think it was. Absolutely loved it! I NEVER would have imagined flying around without blowing things up or shooting them down could be so fun. This has actually brought me closer to my dream of real flying then any combat sim ever really could, and I’ve played a LOT of them over the years; have 3 on my computer now.
I’ve since bought both Prepar3d v3 and X-plane 11. I even made a small cockpit instrument panel which works fairly well on everything except X-plane. Cant get the Saitek panels to work properly with X-plane. One of the things I’m sure I’ll discuss on these forums with you pros. Anyway, hello to all of you and looking forward to chatting with you.
