New products on Aviodrome Show

[dnoize]

I just returned from the first day of the Aviodrome show.

A big thank you to the organisation who put together another perfect show again !

A big thank you also to all our visitors and customers who came to pay us a visit from all over the world. We had customers coming over from India, Russia, Turkey, Scandinavia, Spain, Germany, the UK and many other countries. Many thanks for dropping by and saying hi. I am amazed every time when i see how close the FS community is. Great to be part of it.

FlyEngravity joined up with CPflight and Xesa Motion Systems to offer complete turn key solutions: Motion platforms, plug and play hardware and highly detailed panels.

Now on to the first picture. I will give you all a sneak preview of new products to be released on short term.

Engravity is proud to announce a new co-production with CPflight. We teamed up to develop some new items together.

First a new full scale MCP. We developed a full scale new style mcp with some features not seen before.
First take a look at the pictures below (you can click on the pictures to enlarge them:





Some of the key features:
* solenoid autothrottle disconnect switch. Yes you read it right. The switch flips back when the autothrottle disconnects !
You can see it in action here: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX_Nlc8TVJ0"]YouTube - Solenoid Autothrottle disconnect switch[/ame]
* New style MCP, full scale
* Molded push buttons with highly detailed legends.
* Backlit legends with illuminated flags.
* Aluminium powder coated custom made knobs.
* Functional Dual concentric rotary for the bank angle/heading
* Black window inserts around all display windows.
* white digits like the newer models.

Another Co-development we made with our friends from CPflight is not a Boeing item: we expanded our range to the airbus:
We are proud to announce our joint effort with CPflight to develop a A320 FCU/EFIS.

Both the FCU and MCP come in enclosed metal casings and are fully plug and play through USB. No assembly needed whatsoever.

Hi all,

saw the airbus FCU in real life yesterday. Wow...its amazing in its detail.
If you can afford it... it for sure worth every penny..
the lcd is great. the buttons are of very high quality with nice backlight and
the green indicator is not lighted by the backlight. The dual rotarys (like the 100/1000
selection and on the pressure) are there. The only thing I did not like that much was the
feeling on the push/pull, very little travel (dont know either how this is in the real cockpit)
Overall... WOW
