spring Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 Hello, I saw the video on YouTube, so I wanted to buy the monitor in the video, but I'm a new guy, I'm not sure if this is the right one for me, it's been rated on Facebook, it's said to work, but I'd like to know if it's friendly for a new guy. I am very sorry for my Google English, looking forward to your reply ${1}
fmedges Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 I have 3. They are not my favorite, but they do the trick. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Allied Air Command Website | Allied Air Command Discord
Foka Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 Yes, they're plug and play and you shouldn't have any problems. But I prefered to buy stand alone LCD displays, print 3D housing and make MFDs myself... It was 25% of CubeSim's price. 1

Is it too much trouble if I make my own?Can you buy the monitor directly?Do you need to change anything else?

fmedges Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 ok,So are they worth buying? For the price? No. Before I got them I used a screen and had the mfd’s on the corners of the screen and it was way cheaper for the same functionality just not as compact.

Foka Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 Is it too much trouble if I make my own?Can you buy the monitor directly?Do you need to change anything else? Easy way - buy 15" monitor and attach TM MFDs to frame, something like this: https://uploads.mudspike.com/original/3X/8/e/8e4f35558aa1fd73fd111bc9588338499734860a.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/4U1pifj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/F0Qv7.jpg More elegant way would be buying ~8" LCDs (I bought mine on Aliexpress for $25 each): https://i.imgur.com/J9jGiIM.jpg Then friend designed for me and printed in 3D housing: https://i.imgur.com/e0j5oKj.jpg but you can go even without it: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/lvIrZiGEK8g/hqdefault.jpg And then - your imaginaition is the limit :) https://i.imgur.com/3T1yQVj.jpg - it's thin plywood cut painted black. You can google for different options: LINK
Foka Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 Just be ready for mane cables - ech MFD equals one USB for TM MFD, one USB for LCD power and one HDMI for LCD video signal.
spring Posted November 23, 2020 Author Posted November 23, 2020 I got a message from CUBESIM that they are making a 5" screen, 1:1 mapping, and will also include a button box, which is said to be available early next year, and I'm ready to wait for them to make it.

Rusty88 Posted November 25, 2024 Posted November 25, 2024 Hey all just pick up some of these second hand. I can't seem to get it figured out. I thought it was plug and play but guess I need them to send me a Lua file. Does that sound correct?
