August 27, 201312 yr Commercial Member Couldn't find a way to register at MilViz forum so let me ask here as I am thinking of purchasing. Can one use off the shelf hardware light GoFlight's EFIS, MCP and Saitek equipment with the 732 or is it all custom coding to work autopilot, lights, and stuff? Intel i9-12900KF, Asus Prime Z690-A MB, 64GB DDR5 6000 RAM, (3) SK hynix M.2 SSD (2TB ea.), 16TB Seagate HDD, Gigabyte GeForce 5080 RTX, Corsair iCUE H70i AIO Liquid Cooler, UHD/Blu-ray Player/Burner (still have lots of CDs, DVDs!) Windows 10, (hold off for now on Win11), EVGA 1300W PSUNetgear 1Gbps modem & router, (3) 27" 1440 wrap-around displaysFull array of Bravo, Saitek and GoFlight hardware for the cockpit. Varjo and HP VR headsets for mixed reality.

August 28, 201312 yr Commercial Member I can't because we don't test for that. And I personally don't have that type of equipment. Sorry. Some on the forums use it but I'm not sure what works and what doesn't. Please contact oisin at milviz dot com for forum registration information.

October 23, 201312 yr In my experience the answer is no. Which is one of the reasons I've stopped using it. No 2d panels to mousetrap the controls, custom coding prevents the use of most hardware. I think the heading and course controls as well as the radios work with my GF gear but that's about it. Perhaps I could find a few more things but I'm hoping that someone will build a LINDA profile using lua to control the aircraft with.It's a fine airplane great FDE and sounds I like flying it but would enjoy it much more if I could use my hardware with it. *EDIT* I see the new SP has been released I'm downloading it now and will post if there have been any changes that affect the ability to use hardware with this aircraft.

October 24, 201312 yr After using the model post SP1 I'd like to caveat my previous post and add that I am using the B732 with just the Sperry AP SP77. I don't use the FMS; With that said most of the default A/P commands work and can be used with my Go Flight MCP Advanced. The radios also use default commands and can be configured via my GF166 panels. So aside from manipulating the controls in the overhead most of the flying can be conducted "mouse free". I am still hopeful that a lua script or macro file will surface to allow for hardware control over the remaining cockpit functions. RE Thomason Jr.
November 18, 201312 yr I just got the aircraft last week. I was getting frustrated not being able to get the macros in FSUIPC. I did get the DF727 to run with macros in FSX (Win7 64 bit). I have goflight MCP, CH throttle quad, yoke and pedals. Airplane flies nice and by the numbers. Back to the man cave. FYI, I;ve sent two emails to roadburner and both were bounced back as undeliverable. that was thru the link at the Milviz site. Wes

November 19, 201312 yr Commercial Member PM Q_flyer. I worked with him on setting up fsuipc for this bird. He has macros ready to go for the MCP.
