Hi @Sting57

love your pit. I started to create my own one.

Not as accurate and complete as yours, at least now, till more time and money comes.
Till now i created the 3 MFDs with the LCDs and bought some wood.

Now to my question. Im not sure about the dimension, especialy with the monitor size.
Im limited with the monitor size, because the pit's place will be located "under the roof" with some sloped ceiling. 

Can you tell me your monitor size and the distance between your seat and the monitor. And do you think the size of your monitor would be ok with the same distance, if you would use the "normal" cockpit on the screen, not the HUD-Only variant.

That would be great.
Greetings

This looks really nice, great work.

Could you tell me what buttons you're using for the keypad and the circle buttons on the UFC? I have to re-do my UFC soon and these look perfect.

that is from TekCreation.
