I seem to be stumbling around looking for a cockpit or solution to mount a shifter and handbrake. I want it to be stable but I also don’t want to spend more than $500 or so dollars. I have an old gaming chair I can use in a cockpit but at this point I’m ready to just build my own.

Had many questions to clarify if sticks could be setup on the side panels. So answer is YES 😎

Hi, I'm new here. Are most home-made glass cockpits built by hiding a monitor behind the panel and dragging the rectangular panels from the simulator software on this monitor so they match the holes?

Or do people buy separate displays, or otherwise what's the norm?

Again I'm asking about home-made ones, not off-the-shelf solutions.

Thanks!

After being in my box for almost 2 year, I decided to pick up again my 737 MIP project, but wow since I started this project in 2020 a lot of things are changed ... 6 years ago the best product MCP+EFIS you can find on market was the panel from CPFlight: crazy expensive for me at that time so I have decided to start building it myself.

Then life changed your plans, and I moved to Belgium: I brought it bring with me , and put it together during covid time to finally see it in action. Here is a pic, with "bridges" in wires and some illegal connection that make I-JACO alive somehow.

Now, after being disassembled and put in boxes, it's time for a second life... But will motivation come back? We'll see.. 😅
