Title: Great Screen for Glass Cockpit
Post by: Flgith_1986 on March 16, 2013, 08:22:30 PM
Hey guys,

I just wanted to post this link for this screen that comes in 16inch and 21.5inch and it is a great add on for a glass cockpit.

Let me know what you guys think

Thanks,

Arslan D.

If you're not running a MIP that may work, like for just a desktop setup.  With a hardware MIP you need a 4:3 15" for the EICAS and 19" (18.5") for the Capt and FO PFD / NDs. Nothing else will fit.

Yeah it could work, but after reading more into because of the demands a sim has on hardware a simply USB power monitor might not be enough, and someone had mentioned that monitors with usb power tend to have sketchy drivers, but not sure unless tried.
