Our printed overhead panels are a tough durable print on top of a white 5mm thick plastic sheet. Can be easily cleaned too.
We have different versions from all switches being installed and knobs all the way to no knobs or switches.

Thanks buddy, little suggestion for further custmers, put all screws like AFDS screws 2cm long, will keep uploading photos as the project takes its shape
Thank you Marios, I will take that on board and look into the screw lengths, Do you have anymore pictures of the MIP etc? Love the shots of it in the dark with the lights up and running? Also if it's ok I would like to use the back lighting one to show people what it looks like lite up?Quote:

These just need the final touches and will then be on sale on our website.

Thanks sam
At the warehouse we have been working on our V3 overhead, It's going to be made from 5mm materials for that extra added realistic feel. Also we are thinking about a 1 piece backing panel either made from 3mm or 5mm we are not 100% sure yet.
Take a look at these pictures are let us know what you think? We are also building our new cockpit in our warehouse which is really exciting and we are going to be using all Cockpitsimpart parts!

Great ! The extra thickness gives it a much more realistic look.
The CVR though is only an alu plate so it's not as thick as the other panels.

Update.
We have released the Boeing 737 v3 overhead. This overhead has the thicker more durable plastic. Backing plates are 3mm and the front panels are now 5mm thick giving it that WOW factor!
We currently have 1 in stock ready for dispatch straight away! £399 BARGAN!

HOW LONG BEFORE GAUGES READY ? AND HOW MUCH ?
REGARDS

Hello all,
I have the MIP and the overhead and have to say that they are top notch!! Thank you, Sam and Cockpit Simparts!!!
One fledgling question --- is there a link to a thread on wiring it anywhere ( specifically to a BU0836X ) -- Is that card sufficient? or does one need something more ? I have basic electric skills but need some guidance on wiring and how they connect to the card -- and how to make the LED's respond to alerts etc from the sim ( I use X-Plane 10 but also have FSX to switch to if need be for 737 compatibility, etc. )
Thanks in advance !
Asif
If anyone could point me to a thread I'd so appreciate it!!
The Bodnar card has 32 inputs for switches so no, one card is not sufficient. I have connected every switch and needed 4 Bodnar cards. Connecting is dead easy : for every switch connect one pole to gnd (Ground) and the other to a numbered input, ie nr. 1. If the switch has more poles connect the middle to gnd and one pole to a input and the second to another input (so you don't use the ground for that input). Rotary switches connect in the same way.
For leds you will have to use an output card, for example the Phidgets led 64 advanced.
If you want to make the leds and switches behave in an airplan-like fashion you additionally need a program that interfaces your input and output cards with your airplane.
Hope that helps

Waiting for the new gauges from cockpitsimparts, Sam give us a taste please....
Hello all, I have been away for a while and had the time to come on here. Good to be back though and Sam, I was very impressed with the quality of the MIP I purchased from you. I also bought the throttle quadrant levers and I remember asking if the decals came with them, to which you said yes. I was meaning the flaps decal and was a little disappointed when it was not included. All in all, good quality levers, cheers. I have just ordered a full set of TQ decals from a sim builders website, so all is good. Keep up the good work.
This Google sheet mai interest somebody, take a look and drop your ideas or some new offsets

Please tell me you didn't order them from Fabio...Quote:

@ Bassam45
Well...some of his decals are exactly the same as the ones on Rudy's site, which are of course freely downloadable.
I'm not accusing anybody but take a look here : http://www.737ngproject.be/liens.htm
The Aviation Megastore in my country is selling these decals as well which is a bad thing IMO.
Ah right! He did state that they were properly finished though, which I suppose would save me the bother of printing on special paper with adhesive backing and cutting everything out.
Sorry I have been inactive, It's been very busy here lately, But we have however had time to design the After Overhead to match our Overhead. It's due to be released today or tomorrow so keep your eyes peeled ;)
Take it easy and if there's any questions please just ask,
Jeordan.

Really nice panels and good quality (I've one of your mips) and what about the mip complete servo gauges project ?
That you! We are still working on those, They are not straight forward, Most of them are completed there's a few we need further work with the gears and the amount of teeth each gear have to make it move the correct distance and return etc.Quote:
