Panel Only

This set includes the front and back panels, all annunciators, knobs, and switch guards.
Note: No electronic components are included. You will need to purchase switches, toggle switches, rotary switches, encoders, or potentiometers separately.

Connect and Play

This is a fully functional unit that must be connected via the IDC connector pins on the back of the PCB to a controller board. Programming is required.
Pin layout information is either printed on the PCB or provided in a separate datasheet.

Plug and Play

This version comes pre-programmed and USB-ready for use with your preferred flight simulation software.
Simply plug it in, install the provided configuration files, and you’re ready to fly!

Power Supply Note:
Because the panels can be daisy-chained using their power connectors, single-panel products do not include a 12V power adapter. Only one adapter is required to power your entire custom cockpit setup. The power supply is used solely for the backlighting, not for the product’s core functions.
