Thanks Ralph, still needs some tweaking though, specially in the A/T lever switch, but we'll get there :D

I can imagine, you have to find a right balance between 3D and 2D. Would be great to turn this into a full touch trainer ;)

True. I'm keeping it straight on projection for this one though.
Don't feel like setting up a perspective grid because I want to turn this one into a how-to graphics basics tutorial.
Perspective might be too tricky for this.

Hmm full touch trainer. Like stand-alone? Like Garmin does with their trainers?
Not sure I can, you know my developer skillset is limited to my 90's VCR :mrgreen:
But hey, if somebody feels like doing it, shoot!

I meant something like this

It seems that most of these, or maybe all, are equipped with a physical MCP. Probably to get a better feeling.

Wow I didn't even know they did something like this. Nice to see.
Yeah the MCP is probably used to much during flight to make it a touch screen.
It looks nice though. Is this also for professional usage?

That is pretty spectacular !. Looks like it all folds into a transportable package. Hell of a design!. Is this the next SI store hardware item ? :D
