Building a Panel for your Flight Sim, Part 1: Designing From Scratch

 

When most folks start building their flight simulators, they typically start with the cockpit frame and then immediately start making their panels.  Now, we sell panels, and we are pretty proud of them, but our roots started in building stuff for ourselves and, while we are happy to sell you the panels you need, we totally understand those of you who want to make them yourself.  We put together this three part video series to be a definitive masterclass on how to manufacture your panels at home.  I don't hold anything back and show you the exact process I use to build the panels you can buy on this site from start to finish.  I hope you find it valuable.

To get you started, here are the basic dimensions for military aircraft panels.  Put it to good use!
