Cessna Citation Mustang Build

[jaraynor]

Looks Great, FE. very nice. Is anyone making panels? I've been thinking about the Simkits G1000 screens, anyone like to make two panels

Would Project Magenta's GA Glass cockpit work with this aircraft? It works with FSUIPC. Its not a true G1000, but its really close.

Hi,

I know that this is an old thread, but there aren't many who have built a cockpit for the Cessna Citation.

I am a new user, got hooked onto FSX. I was always a flight nut. Want to build a home cockpit. Don't want something as complex as a full size jet and as simple as a Cessna 172.
anyway, I have some questions

1) Do you have any updates to share ?
2) Which Cessna Citation plane is good to buy and provides features to fully interface with hardware ?
3) In not Cessna Citation, which is similar ?
4) I felt the cessna citation was easier with the glass cockpit. that saves some hardware interfacing ? you agree ?

5) Which software to use with fsuipc for the glass cockpit instruments ?
6) Which hardware gauges, interface boards and interface software to use ? example, which attitude guage can I buy and how to interface it with this plane ?
which interface card / etc to use to interface with a rocker switch?

7) Have you thought of using a project to achieve more realism?

I have a full fledged factory and can bulid hardware panels and electronics.

Hello everybody,

yes, I know this thread is really old now, but, vicay, you wrote here exactly what I'm thinking, too:
I also currently considering building a glass cockpit for a light business jet like the Cessna Citation Mustang - not so complex like a big Boing/Airbus plane, but not "only" a Cessna 170.

vicay, therefore I would be really curious if you finished your project:
did you build a Cessna Mustang cockpit or did you choose another plane at the end?

Also:
how many other cockpit builders with "light business jets" are here?

Thanks for any ideas
Andreas

Hello Andreas,

I'm also busy right now to build a Citation mustang.
Switch panels are ordered with Dean Ruscool.nz
I have the emuteq g1000 of steve master and flight1 G1000 student&cockpit builder.
I use an old 15" screen for the MFD.
The problem with F1 software is they only have 6 cessna plane and not the mustang.
I guess I have to work on the aircraft.cfg file.
Let me know your progress.

Hi Avro,

Yes, but I'm talking about the Garmin F1 technology software at 250$ which apparently has nothing to see with the Flight1 software.

Best regards

Gerry
