Building my first home cockpit

[rrastat 0]

Hi everyone !

I am starting to build a a320 home cockpit by myself (I would like to build every components by myself). 

I don't know if you have recommendations for me in this project. I would like to know which software should I use to configure and use all my DIY panels with my flightsim. I am currently running FSX on windows 10 with Aerosoft a320-21. 

I am quite new and such a beginner with all this stuff LOL.

Thank you for your help !

There's quite a few software solution and it depends entirely on your set up and budget. At the moment I believe the most complete premium software is airmanager however you could set up a sim entirely using freeware. It really depends on what your doing. 

 

What are you using to build the panels? Arduino, bodnar etc

Will you be generating outputs to your panels? i.e lights that go on/off and dials/gauges?

It is going to be a multi-pc build?

Do you have plans to add a raspberry pi or other controllers similar?

 

If it's just a basic arduino you can use joy2key or something similar to just bind the outputs to keys, if your new I would recommend starting with something like this. There are other boards similar to arduino but don't require coding as well.
