I am out of my league here but I see a lot of posts from GA builders about gauges.
The best of course remain PM. I know the $$ barrier fact for some. Try the demo and you will see it is worth every cent. Can be resized, moved, networked etc etc...
But what I wanted to point out is that there is an alternative, as silkysmooth, incredibly detailed and sophisticated, available for peanuts, and very few people seem to know about it. At $25 a set it is a steal and no, repeat no, freeware gauge comes even close. I tried them a few years ago and I was amazed. And the choice, from basic Cessna instrument to glass displays and GPS, is fantastic.
As far as I know they are not "networkable" so they are perfect for a One computer/multimonitor Sim, as they are very frame rate friendly
Compatible FS9-FSX
