Panel Builder Spitfire Panel

Post by sleightflight »

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone knows if the Panel Bulider spitfire add on panel will work with the A2A Spitfire.
I have asked them the question and they told me if it accepts fsx inputs / outputs then it will work but have no plans to do a dedicated panel at this time as there is insufficient demmand.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Hello,

not sure what panel builder is but you if its programmable you should be good to go with the aid of FSUIPC or somesuch that will help get the lvars for you to work from. If it will only work with FSX then its a non starter as we use custom code to create the realism/high fidelity simulation with Accu-sim.

thanks,
Lewis

Hi Lewis,
Thanks for the reply.
Panel builder is a program that enables you to build your own panels for FSX or P3D and display the guages to either your main display or another one of your choice, it also will work from a networked pc either by simconnect or fswide which reduces the work load of the main flight simulator pc, the software won a PC Pilot platinum award.
They have produced a dedicated panel for the A2A Cessna 172 recently which I also own this aircraft but haven't tried the panel add on.
The guages that come with the software do work but I'm not convinced of the accuracy hence me asking them about a dedicated panel or if the spitfire panel they already do will work.
I feel that the spitfire package will potentially work and gives the panel of a later Spitfire but I'm not sure how accurately the guages will be compared to the ones in the sim.
I was hoping someone on here had already given this a try and could answer some of my question as it costs £19.95 to purchase on top of the near £60 of the main software.

Purchased the panel builder spitfire package, the standard six seem to work quite well, just need to try some of the other guages once I get my next 7" display.
I'm not sure how to post photos on here to show you all how it looks, nothing like the sim pit that was linked above but it's better than nothing.

Hello,

you can post images using the [img] tags. So once you upload them to the web via an image hosting site or your own webspace just post the url of the image with the [img] tags around it and your good to go.

Thanks Lewis.
Once BT over here in the UK sort my internet out I will upload a short video of it in action so in the future if anyone else looks into this hopefully they will find this thread and see it in action.
