Hey all,

Does anybody have or can someone get me the measurements of the Saitek switch panel, BIP, the radios, or the autopilot panel. Anyone of them would be fine. I believe they're all the same.

Thanks in advance!

Sure.

Here you go:

11 1/8" Wide
3 3/8" Height
5/8" Deep (Front Panel) / 1 3/8" Total Depth from front of panel to back of instrument

Hope that helps.

Are you sure they are all the same size?

The one's I have are. They all fit interchangeably into the bracket. I have a switch panel, a multi panel, and a radio panel:

Thanks Warren. I was concerned about the outside dimensions as I want to mount them directly into the MIP and not use the Saitek setup. I thought they would be a bit bigger (outside dimensions). You wouldn't happen to have the dimensions for the multi instrument panel? I'm working on a twin Duke 60 adapted to the G1000 nav gauge and was thinking of using Saitek as backup gauges and where possible other functions.

Hi Warren,
sorry for the off topic but I wish to know what is the aircraft that you are flying with the Saitek autopilot?
The saitek autopilot is only compatible with the default aicrafts of fs9 and fsx or with others pay?
please let me know I'm very interested on it.
Tnks and cheers

I am using the PMDG 737-800. You are correct, alone, SAITEK works with the default aircraft, but I found this outstanding utility online that allows you to use the SAITEK stuff with pretty much any aircraft:

If you use it, please donate to keep it going.

Hello again Warren,

sorry for boring you on this matter, but I downloaded the file/driver in subject, but how I can get the proper configuration with the PMDG B737?
I read something on the SPAD forum, they are talking about the macro-mouse thru the fsuipc then to be assigned to the driver utility program...
How you solved this thing?
Do you have a little tutorial or can you give me an input on how to do that?
Tnks a lot.
Cheers
Andrew

Sorry Andrew... did you ever resolve this? I never received (or never saw) a notification on this topic. Didn't mean to blow you off.
