2D Panels for A2A C172 on P3Dv4?

Post by ncngrr »

Does the A2A C172 support a 2D instrument panel complete with all actionable switches?

Since I have 180 degrees worth of outside-the-window views for the scenery and aircraft frame, and a separate monitor dedicated to just the instrument panel, the Virtual Cockpit does not support what I'm looking for. Suggestions?

Thanks.

There is no 2D panel with these aircraft. You will need to build a custom physical or virtual cockpit as others have done in order to get what you desire.

Thanks. That’s what I suspected. I’m thinking of using Sim Innovations’ Air Manager to generate the 2D instrument panel. Thanks again.

Hello,

yes, given the aircraft is used for flight training simulators this can be done. We offer the viable list for the hobby simpit builders here;

And as you mention, companies such as Simonnovations offer different solutions that support our custom simulations.

thanks,
