Apache wanted to see my new setup so I thought I would post all my progress. This is my 3rd iteration of my panels. Once I finalize my keybindings for each aircraft, the white will be black card stock with white lettering to match the background.

The wiring done on third prototype with CAT 5 cable ( they all were done with CAT 5 inards but I learned to keep it in its sheath. These 2 boards are done with Leo Bodnar Alpha boards. Wired with a matrix)

The third prototype features a Left & Right Panel. Each has 35 buttons, the R. has 4 axis controls, the L. has 7 as my pedals are linked into the Left board. I changed my MFD screens from two to one thanks to input from NumberJ
