Hi

Im Arturo, from Spain.

I get the chance to buy an old ast300 simulator panel (only de panel).
How easy or dificult it would be to make it works with prepar3d?

I think it uses real gauges with mods (servos?)
Im thinking in remove all the electronics, and operate each gauge directly with link2fs or similar. is it the right way to make it work?

Is there any posibility to make work the radios? Perhaps is easy to unmount them and mount saitek radio panels..

Thanks for your help.
(sorry for my poor english)

I want to simulate probably Milviz Cessna 310 in prepar3d.
I have read some post, and I think the correct way to start is remove all the electronics, and with a pair of BU08336X

make yoke, throttle quadrant and switches work.
It seems inputs wouldnt be very dificult. Outputs seems to be not as easy. But I start with inputs and then we will see.

What do you think?

Thanks.
