Title: Projectors or screens?
Post by: Britjet on October 31, 2025, 09:01:58 AM

Hi all,
I'm a newcomer after a long absence.
I have a 747 sim (home built) with a 5-meter projection screen which is using 3 Optoma 1080P short-throw projectors.I would like to take advantage of 4K - but I'm torn between getting 4K projectors or just replacing with 3x100nch tv screens.
Advice welcome!

My 2cents:
If you have enough room (ie: fairly long distance between windshield and projection screens) keep the projectors.
TV screens have to be much closer to cover winshield and windows of the 74 and you will loose sense of depth.
(Repeat IMHO)
Jack
