Yet another (virtual) ICP panel for F-16

[AnarchyZG]

Here is my take on the Viper ICP (for MATRIC controller) , I hope that this is just a start and in the future I will add more instrument panels, maybe even plug DCS BIOS to raise the fidelity up a notch. But even as it is it's better then keyboard shortcuts or taking hands off HOTAS to grab a mouse in combat.

Nice one - I don’t have android so can’t test it but like the looks of it

Looks good. One small thing - ALLOW should be ALOW :)

Oops, I'll fix it.

 

Nice catch :D

Nice - that would be cool if I wasn't in VR! ;)

 

You could probably slide the dobber over left a little and add the DRIFT C/O - WARN RESET switch also. Just lately found I have been using that a fair bit so had to add the mapping to my virtual ICP panel.

It is not VR, it is on smartphone, but yes, nothing can really simulate the tactile feel of the physical buttons and switches.

 

As for layout, you can add anything, max supported button grid is 12 x 12 although that would only make sense on a 10' tablet.

 

 

I usually make "my own" panels which make more sense in DCS context rather then replicate the look of the real thing. For example,

I fly with completely made up controls for Ka-50, this is the weapons panel:

 

 

 

Works for me since I do not have physical interface (HOTAS, cockpit) even remotely similar to real aircraft and I hate using the mouse in combat trying to flip a switch somewhere. So although it does not look like the real thing I find it much more enjoyable then using the mouse or trying to play all those three key keyboard combos like chords on the piano :)

Interesting! Is there a delay from pushing the button on the android device? Or nearly instant?

It only needs Android 5. eBay is full of used android stuff.

 

My problem is it's windows 10. You can pry 7 Pro from my cold dead hands!!!(or when FS2020 comes out.)
