January 12, 201214 yr Has anybody seen this yet???http://www.simw.com/hardware/v737-overhead.htmlLooks awesome!!! Could be the belated Christmas present I need to buy myself! Need that SDK though PMDG!! Let's hope the lawyers work this out soon....Phil
January 12, 201214 yr Agreed,really bad,and look at the dimensions,it is really small Vladimir Levkov / Владимир Левков Two miles of road can take you two miles.Two miles of runway can take you anywhere in the world
January 12, 201214 yr Commercial Member Agreed. You're better off going to one of those sites that provides the toggles and all that as a package that you assemble yourself. If I'm paying that much, I want at least a fake APU EGT and Press gauge inset. Even if it doesn't swing the needle, the paint just looks cheap. Kyle Rodgers
January 12, 201214 yr Agree with everyone on that. I'll build you better for that price (way better). It doesn't even have any analog gauges. My overhead was as real as it gets and that's now over 10 years old. Makes that one look like a toy ("Made by Mattel").I used Flight Deck Solutions panels in the long run (many others were tested and trashed due to craptastic backlighting and incorrect cut outs). i9 10920x @ 4.8 ~ MSI Creator x299 ~ 256 Gb 3600 G.Skill Trident Z Royal ~ EVGA RTX 3090ti ~ Sim drive = M.2 2-TB ~ OS drive = M.2 is 512-gb ~ 5 other Samsung Pro/Evo mix SSD's ~ EVGA 1600w ~ Win 10 Pro Dan Prunier
January 12, 201214 yr Commercial Member I used Flight Deck Solutions panels in the long run (many others were tested and trashed due to craptastic backlighting and incorrect cut outs).If I had thousands of dollars to spend, and a suitable basement...They do some great work, though. There's a basement sim right up the road from me that we use for WorldFlight every year that uses their stuff. Kyle Rodgers
January 12, 201214 yr Opencockpits is very good.Here is a fully assembled OH panel, complete with backlight, gauges, and displays. You can build it yourself for less. Their site has just about everything you'd need to build a full blown 737 cockpit.http://www.opencockpits.com/catalog/overhead-fully-assembled-p-325.html Ethan Rayhorn My Office: (Taken at FL410)
January 12, 201214 yr The only problem is you will not be able to use this with the NGX.SDK or no SDK.You will need to find custom software and I wish you luck.Fred. Frederic Steiner.
January 12, 201214 yr Isn't that a beauty. Alas just a pipe dream for me since i am now at the 'Condo' stage of my life.Edit. i am obviously reffering to the Opencockpits Overhead. Edited January 12, 201214 yr by wanabflyer Rick Hobbs
January 12, 201214 yr Commercial Member The only problem is you will not be able to use this with the NGX.SDK or no SDK.You will need to find custom software and I wish you luck.I'm not sure how the toggles show up to the OS, but couldn't you map them using FSUIPC and the keystrokes in the FMC? It'd be a bear without the SDK, but I suppose that's where your custom software comment comes in... Kyle Rodgers
January 12, 201214 yr Commercial Member The only problem is you will not be able to use this with the NGX.SDK or no SDK.You will need to find custom software and I wish you luck.Fred.Why would that be? The SDK's gonna let just about anything work provided the company makes drivers or you know how to program them yourself.
