inexus Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) Sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find any when searching here: I got a CM3 setup using monster tech and would like to install the monster tech MFD on the left of the throttle. Is this too close to use the buttons on the MFD? I haven't been able to find any images of such a setup when googling. I'm curious if anybody has done this and if so, if it provides enough space between the throttle and the MFD in situations like when you push the throttle all the way forward.

Scott-S6 Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 I haven't tried it but it does seem a little crowded. When I was using monstertech mounts I had the MFDs mounted to the desk plate.
Lynchsl62 Posted July 12, 2022 Posted July 12, 2022 Sorry for late reply. There is not really an issue as you slide the throttle rearward in the monster tech mount to allow clearance - though this then pushes your chair rearward to allow access. I use the MonsterTech center mount for the MFD but as you can see I have Virgil Control Panel’s mounted on side with MonsterTech mounts with no real issue i would recommend the center mount as it brings the MFD further into the line of vision PC: 9980XE @ 64GB RAM /2080Ti, Samsung C49RG90 Joystick bases: VKB GFIII, FSSB R3L, Brunner CLS-E, Virpil Mongoos CM2 Joystick grips: Realsimulator (F-18CGRH, F-16SGRH-CE), VKB (MCG Pro, F-14, KG-12), Virpil Warbrd Throttles: Virpil CM2, Kantorrin, Other: TrackIR, TM MFDx2 (Cubesim Screenx2), Virpil Control Panel 1

Zeta7 Posted August 19, 2022 Posted August 19, 2022 I don’t like how crowded everything feels with my center mounted mfd and a tablet for my ufc. The fix/alternative for me seems to be a floor mounted stick and keep the displays laid out like in the aircraft. Just my $0.02 1
