Glass Panel Retrofit Option
-
I might be in the minority here. Any chance of seeing a G600 retrofit panel option? I have seen a lot of these turbine duke converstions with this upgrade.
-
I'd love to see that as well but since I don't think there currently is a good G600 option the new WT G3X Touch would be a perfect upgrade for the Duke
-
I can only agree. High performance airplanes like the Duke (and especially the Turbine Duke) that are mostly used for getting from A to B, and not for fun, are much better with Glass Instruments. I doubt we will ever get it, as BKSQ (and I too, but only for "fun" planes) are fans of analog gages. Still, I think this would be really cool, as this is a feature that - i think- not a single MSFS plane has. Either they are modern or they are old.

The only plane I'm aware of currently you can have either/or is the Default 172 if you got the premium version of the simulator. But it's not hot swappable - you have to pick it when loading your flight.
I think having the option would be pretty cool, I mean who doesn't like more options. However I buy BlackSquare planes specifically for the analog guages. The whole reason I starting buying BKSQ planes was the lack of analog when the sim release - everything had glass. They cater specifically to the audience that wants analog, so I doubt it would ever happen - but it seem BKSQ is always full of surprises you never know what might happen. And I would welcome it! (as long as I still get my analog HA!)

Glad to see I'm not the only one. Would be great to have multiple options.
-
Yeah, I prefer analog gauges. The smaller 3rd party attitude indicators and ND, similar to the TBM are nice too. The Garmin panel setups are atrocious to me however. We are overrun with them in this sim.

@Orlaam "We are overrun with them in this sim." In all the wrong airplanes though. I don't need it in the Cub or a light-sport but it sure would be nice doing 280 knots in IMC. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of analog gauges, especially if they are as meticulously simulated as they are in Black Square products, but having both options would be great.
