Fully Customizable To Meet Your Needs
Experience the essence of flying from a whole new perspective.
Looks and works great. Great help from Alex.
A must have if you are a GA fan, can be applied to any GA aircraft as a modular approach.
The build, quality and functionality is always top notch!
Love all the Desktop Pilot hardware, makes flying the simulator truly immersive
Purchased the panel at while at the 2025 FS expo. Staff was very helpful and getting to try the panel out first hand sold me. The panel has a nice solid feel with crisp switches and smooth turn knobs. Using it in sim is as simple as plug and play. The ability to easily remove the backing for mounting is also a big plus. I have been so impressed with the quality of this panel and the flaps lever that I am building out an entire rig with these parts. 10/10 Would highly recommend these to anybody who enjoys flying Cessnas in sim or to anybody using it for at home practice. Cant wait to try more!
