October 9, 20232 yr I thought some of you may like to take a close up look at the VRInsight Boeing 737 Overhead panel that I have just installed....

October 14, 20232 yr It's a stunning setup. Wish you the best with it!! Quick question though and don't want it to come off as silly but does it only work with the 737? Obviously I wouldn't expect every function to work on other aircraft but do basic things like lights, passenger sigs etc work or is it strictly for the 737 (which I am not saying is a bad thing if that is the case) Just curious, Thank you Have a Wonderful Day -Paul Solk

I'm unsure, I think you could get it to work with other aircraft, you would have to create a specific profile by configuring the different switches and knobs via SPAD. But, as I say, I'm not sure. EDIT: I see Dave has replied to you confirming my thoughts about SPAD.

Yes, I've been around simmning for years and have often thought how I could give back to the community with something I am experienced with, and also get enjoyment from, so making videos seemed like a good way of doing that.

I also use some of the switches for piston planes (lights and any deice/anti-ice). Makes it easier for me to transition between planes as I am basically using the same devices for everything. I absolutely love this panel.
October 15, 20232 yr Thank you @Rockliffe and @Little Jenny among others for the feedback. This could very well be my next investment... Now I have OI4FS for my Opencockpit modules, GoFlight working, this would really bring it all together. Thank you again and fabulous piece of kit! Have a Wonderful Day -Paul Solk

Then you should feel very happy with yourself right now as mine is on order 🙂 LOL!@! @Rockliffe you should get advertising dollars from them LOL. @Little Jenny what other aircraft do you have configurations for if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you! Congratulations!!!! I'm sure you won't be disappointed. 😉 Currently I use mine in the 737 (obviously), 787, A320, CRJ, MD-82 and eventually the 146 (when I finally start flying it). I also use it in the TBM, Twin Otter and EMB-110 (been working on a Caravan profile but haven't flown it in a bit). Basically any aircraft I can find a way to use it I do. I used to use a Desktop Aviator Cessna panel for lights and such but it's in the pile of retired hardware.

Tripod stand behind the desk, desk mounted extension arm or wall mounted tv stand with extension arm and tilt/angle funcitonality... Something like this...

Very straightforward.
