• WinWing Take off panel or Combat ready panel?

  A potentially cheaper option: get yourself a small-to-mid-sized Android tablet or Chromebook (7-10" is the sweet spot for this for me, if that helps) and figure out a way to stand it up on your desk, and get an app called Matric on that and your PC. You can run it for free but features are very limited until and unless you spend the (I think) $15 to unlock the paid version. But you can download and install several... Source: over 1 year ago

  But do check out MATRIC. https://matricapp.com/ It gives you a completely customizable board on your tablet (or phone) to control keys and even a virtual joystick on your PC.

• My CRJ Autopilot Panel 🤩 Build with some Buttons, LEDs, Encoders and Metalsheet from an old Computertower. The textboxes above the buttons are illuminatet with Background LEDs und they will light up in green when its activated in FS2020. The interface works with an Arduino Megaboard and Mobiflight

  My second project was to make a simple flight sim button box using an Android app called MATRIC. It grew arms and legs, I wrote a piece of middleware that will actually take in-game data using SimConnect and send it through to the tablet. Comms Screen and even a throttle.

  I would highly recommend MATRIC for an interface, free up to 6 controls. A mining laser throttle being an axis counts as just 1, then 3 buttons for consumables and you're done. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Any useful/cool apps that go with DCS for phone or tablet?

  I found an app called matric, it allow you to use your phone (preferably a tablet) as a remote controller. You create a “deck”, where you insert basically buttons and you associate them to a keystroke or a combination. So when you press that button on you tablet, your computer receive the same input as you pressed the specified key(s) and DCS will act accordingly. Source: almost 3 years ago
