Chrjs Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 hi, i'm running DCS A10 via a 2 screen configuration - main cockpit view 1680x1050 (TrackIR), and on the left my old flatscreen (1280x1024) where i placed the MFDs on. I now think about putting the TM MFDs on top of it to actually operate them from there. But I wonder whether the two frames would actually fit next to each other - i searched the web but could not find the exact size/dimensions of each of the TM MFD frames (the whole thing including frame). I hope some of you have the product and have the time to quickly measure it and post it here! Thank you very much for your help! kind regards, chris i79900k @ 4,7 - Geforce RTX2080TI 11GB - 32Gbram - Win10 - TRackIr4 - Thrustmaster Warthog/Saitek Rudder
Chrjs Posted August 13, 2012 Author Posted August 13, 2012 Thank you for the answer. I found that picture already but i think the drawing is referring to the original MFD in the A10 - it says the Thrustmaster one is ALMOST the exact size, but this time i need to know the exact size of the complete Thrusmaster MFD to be 100% sure that it fits. Maybe somebody can confirm that the dimensions of TM are identical with the above diagram. i79900k @ 4,7 - Geforce RTX2080TI 11GB - 32Gbram - Win10 - TRackIr4 - Thrustmaster Warthog/Saitek Rudder
Kuky Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 TM MFD and real A-10 MFD are not the same at all, real A-10 MFD are bigger by fair margin and are most certainly not "almost" the same size. tM MFD match closely F-16 MFD No longer active in DCS...
Chrjs Posted August 13, 2012 Author Posted August 13, 2012 TM MFD and real A-10 MFD are not the same at all, real A-10 MFD are bigger by fair margin and are most certainly not "almost" the same size. tM MFD match closely F-16 MFD no problem, but my question remains - the TM MFD matches CLOSELY the F-16 one - i would really like to have precise numbers here. Can somebody tell me that the TM MFD frame (outer dimensions!) is "a x b mm" Sorry for being picky here! :smilewink: i79900k @ 4,7 - Geforce RTX2080TI 11GB - 32Gbram - Win10 - TRackIr4 - Thrustmaster Warthog/Saitek Rudder

Chrjs Posted August 13, 2012 Author Posted August 13, 2012 140x140mm perfect! thank you very much - it should be fine to place both of them on my 2nd screen! i79900k @ 4,7 - Geforce RTX2080TI 11GB - 32Gbram - Win10 - TRackIr4 - Thrustmaster Warthog/Saitek Rudder

jonalcock Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Two 8" Monitors with Cougar MFDs for sale Hi, I am about to put two 8", flat fronted VGA monitors (800x600) for sale on ebay with two Thrustmaster MFD cougar button panel things. I'd be much happier to see them go to a DCS user as the are perfect for setting up the MFCDs or as part of a serious cockpit build project. Does anyone know of a good classifieds page or forum for Sim hardware? Thanks, Jon
