This project turned out great. Printed the case, ordered the screen and cables i needed. Used MSFS popm mentioned in the video and I was set. Plan on doing the other GTC units for my home cockpit.
Finally got my 2 screens setup. Thanks so much for the video. I ended up making a timber 45 degree panel to mount them on and painted them black. Works perfectly in the Citation Longitude in MSFS 2020.
@@bikesandbits1000 Ive used my tablet with this set up and as far as the buttons go it works great. But the knobs suck. And that what I really need. Really the steps he showed to make this work will work with any touch screen as far as I can tell. Theres another video where someone used a touch screen monitor and he had no problem using the knobs but he didnt say what software he used . Ive also tried both msfs and xplane and had the same results
That is so cool! I'm looking forward to the video on the using knobs in MSFS as I like flying in VR and it's a pain having to look at the keyboard to find the right key combos to do things.
Wow! Great video again and he answered a question I was going to ask in the last 10 seconds. I do hope he has a Etsy store to sell parts of components for us that are less capable.. always wanted a garman 430/530 display for my C172.
Great video and helpful to think of how I want to setup my simulator. I'm interested in your next video about rotary knobs since I've been thinking about building a DIY knobster.
I've been using an app called Matric for Android, it's a button box app but it can screen mirror, so I put my panels on my second monitor and screen mirror to my tablets/phone, the touch functionality seems to work just fine with it.
@@ElixirOfEuphoria Certainly possible. I'm sure I've read that some people don't get the frame rate hit, particularly if connected to an iGPU, but merely activating the VFR map popout on my 4K screen has a dramatic hit. I suspect that some form of additional 'VSync' is being introduced and that it doesn't match the main screen. Should be easy for Asobo to fix if they wanted to.
This is brilliant! Is it functional to only print the GTC580 case and use it for both GTC570 in portrait and GTC580 in landscape? I'm assuming the GTC570 would expand to fit the larger screen real estate the GTC580 provides.
Hey oneill09, Yes sure, you can absolutly do that. Additionally you can hide the task bar and the window title bar. It would look like this: built2fly.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/IMG20221231121138-scaled.jpg -B2F
Excellent idea for an affordable external pop out . I would love to see a Garmin g1000 with the perspective plus bezel, which has less buttons than the regular G1000. The perspective plus configuration is used with the cirrus SR 2x aircrafts. Thanks
Wow !! amazing ! There is any option to put one of those gtc 750 3d printed on an stand joystick for mfd cougar ??? Or maybe the same 3d stand works there?
Hey Nesty, we are not planning on creating a housing for the MFD Cougar. For this purpose a 4:3 monitor maybe fits a little bit better. The 7" waveshare display would be too high and too narrow as you can see here: built2fly.com/mfd_couger_7touch/ - B2F
Thanks for your sharing this information and I would like to see more information about this device and I would like to get one for myself, please and advise me how to buy this device Thanks again Essa jaafar
Hello. I bought the parts and assembled it and everything is working almost perfect. But I have two problems: 1) At minute 5:06 you show the TBM930 PFD/MFD/NAV panel, but the side buttons to switch between them are not accessible. My screen looks the same as yours, but I tap on the MFD or NAV and it doesn't change. These buttons are on the outside. Is there a way to change this? 2) Is there a way to disappear on this screen the windows 11 toolbar and menu at the bottom of the screen? For the rest, it was pretty good. Congrats and thanks for making it available. I'm going to print the parts on the Ender 3D V2 later today.
Excellent idea and implementation, have my replica just finished. However, it would be nice for the TBM 930, you could switch between PDF, MDF and COM by touch, so unfortunately you always have to click with the mouse in the cockpit. Or is there already a solution for this?
I assume it needs a free HDMI port in the graphic card ? How do you connect that + 2 screens ? I also have two monitors and they take the two HDMI - IN of my graphic cards ... Thanks for any inputs (!) you might have ! Cheers
Lots of ways. On-board graphics. Graphics card with multiple outputs. A second or even third graphics card. USB or other interface to HDMI adapter for newer machines…
I have a ton of these waveshare displays lying around (7in v2.1, sim compatible) but it only partially registers touches. Too bad I can’t find any other drivers :/
Is there a way we can do it without display and set it like the stream deck xl for specific stuff. Only reason smaller display causes issues when I been using it
I purchased this display, it works perfectly in windows, but after the update of today I can’t select any of the Garmin buttons. I can select them but nothing pops out. Do you have the same problem?
the touch doesn't really work great with the standard pop outs. If it works, your mouse will switch to your second display which is annoying if you still use the mouse for AP for example.
Hey youpepe, that is correct. The TDS GTN 750 has a slight delay on my PC. However this is most likely due to the fact my old graphics card is running 4 screens simultaneously (GTX 1060). The PMS50 GTN 750 and the GTC570/580 aircrafts do not have a delay on my PC. -B2F
Good tip for anyone having this issue: not all micro USBs are the same. A rookie error but the cable I was using must’ve just been a power and not data cable. I used the one from the box and it works, it’s just much too short; so off to buy another one.
Dont think so, even if you could display the shard on the display the focus would switch from sc to gg. Meaning your Mouse would be on your second monitor when you click on it. You're better of using regular tablets for gameglass i guess.
Hey Amer, if the CDU is completly touch like in the 787 yes. Image of 787 CDU: built2fly.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/IMG20221231121638-scaled.jpg For the 737, there is an addon called Fergo Virtual CDU which works with normal tablets. -B2F
and now all of your controllers wont work after you touch the touch screen controller because the main msfs window loses focus and wont capture any controller inputs lmao good luck with it. better to make a dedicated controller with that software to make panels and stuff instead of pop out panel.
I really like how enthusiastic everybody is in the flightsim community with making stuff etc.
This project turned out great. Printed the case, ordered the screen and cables i needed. Used MSFS popm mentioned in the video and I was set. Plan on doing the other GTC units for my home cockpit.
I was hoping to see how he added the rotary knobs/buttons
Finally got my 2 screens setup. Thanks so much for the video. I ended up making a timber 45 degree panel to mount them on and painted them black. Works perfectly in the Citation Longitude in MSFS 2020.
Have you set it up with a glass cockpit? Do the knobs turn?
@@davidmcdaniel6270 I dont have it setup with the knobs, only the screens. Something I am looking to change with other hardware I already have.

Is this video to be expected? Having controls show in VR is a major step towards usability that Asobo should really take.
Darn, tbm and longitude are my two favourite aircraft, but they have displays which are rotated from each other!
First video and you hit it out of the park!
I like the stereo audio in the intro!
Air Manager allows for buttons and dials (Knobster). Even popup buttons like Baro can appear and disappear with panel hot spots.
welcome to the cockpit builders family ! now that you have started, nothing can't stop you !
Great video but still waiting on your next video on rotary knobs and push buttons!
This is awesome! Thank you so much. I can't wait to see the knobs working with this.

Looking forward to your next video. I’ve done a lot with arduino and now Raspberry pi pico and have wanted to try doing something for flight sim.
Amazing! thanks for the video and step by step setup overview. Looking forward to your future videos.
Make the next video before I try to guess how to do it and screw something up please
Amazing, and Excellent!!

thank you for this christmas gift.
awesome. this channel is what all I need.
you did a great job there. Nice idea. subbed
Any chance this may be converted for x-plane 11 or 12 ? thanks great work and awesome video I'll be building this for sure.
Does this work with x plane
Doing an 'left ALT+Enter' will make it fit full screen
This is just Awesome- New subscriber-
Waiting for MS to fix the massive frame loss when popping put windows.
Can you make a video showing how to adapt this for DCS? Thank you
Neat, BUT, does this have the same disastrous effect on FPS that popping out even the VFR map does in MSFS itself?
That is a very good question!
I'd imagine this is one of the reasons Asobo hasn't made a dedicated pop out manager themselves

Very interesting video, however it's a pity I can't use it because I fly in VR. Wish there was a decent affordable way to see your hands in VR.🤔
CZcams "USE YOUR HANDS IN VR | Hand Tracking Tested | MSFS | OpenXR Toolkit with UltraLeap"
I use similar solution with 2 tablet. The problem Its the frame drop when undocking the Windows
im thinking to buy 2 of those screens, can you als set it up as youre map screen or mcas screen?
Your choice for 7inch Capacitive Touch Screen LCD was 800×480 or 1024×600?

would this work with X-plane 12?

Hiding title bar and full screen mode I have found where to configure it.

Could you setup something Arduino based to do that? As in a small three push button module?
Where is the “ touch “ cord plugged into at the other end?

Sensacional.
Also working with the a320neo FlybyWire?
Is the 7inch Capacitive Touch Screen LCD (H), 1024×600, HDMI, IPS, Various Systems Support compatible with windows 11
How bout PMDC FMC?
now they just nee to make the longitude fly correctly.
Machst du das auch nochmal auf Deutsch? und stellst du auch her und vertreibst?
Why there is so huge lag in screen in the last seconds of the video ?
Thingverse link is giving a 404 error. Would you be willing to repost? I would really like to try out your design!
please! do a new vídeo, the program change interface, it's not the same
great
Do you have this for Garmin G3X for cubcrafters for MSFS?
I purchased this display, it works perfectly in windows, but after the update of today I can’t select any of the Garmin buttons. I can select them but nothing pops out. Do you have the same problem?
I didn’t use the pop out manager! Will try that this afternoon. (I used alt + select)
you don't lose aircraft control when touch the secondary screen on msfs?
So is popout manager free? Can I do similar things that air manager can do??
Any possible way you will be selling these 3D printed stands
you can pop out panel in the sim no addon press hold Right Alt then click on any display you want to popout!
Yes but the software lets you configure presets. Which saves all the time down the road
the touch doesn't really work great with the standard pop outs. If it works, your mouse will switch to your second display which is annoying if you still use the mouse for AP for example.
I use a tablet as a 2nd screen and when I touch the pad you lose control of the aircraft and have to move and click back in the main screen. .
@@nigelmorris4769 "Pop out Panel Manager" fixes this
I thought the same but noticed the touch wasn't working properly. As others have said "Pop Out Panel Manager" fixed it for me as well.
Does this work with a g1000? will it pop out the buttons as well?
I might be wrong but seems like there is a little delay introduced. Is this right?
Hey youpepe,
that is correct. The TDS GTN 750 has a slight delay on my PC. However this is most likely due to the fact my old graphics card is running 4 screens simultaneously (GTX 1060).
The PMS50 GTN 750 and the GTC570/580 aircrafts do not have a delay on my PC.

Would this work for GTN750?
will it detect airliner FMC and its keyboard?
How I can order the case.
Hi, will it work with DSC too?
can this work for DCS and Star Citizen?
Is it posible to use this for the gtn 750?
is this compatable with other flight sims
Looks like Windows has changed the settings for setting up a touch panel. I can't get to the options at 2:00 Any chance you know how to get there?
Same did you find a solution to this?
Would anyone know if this would work with game glass for star citizen?
Dont think so, even if you could display the shard on the display the focus would switch from sc to gg. Meaning your Mouse would be on your second monitor when you click on it. You're better of using regular tablets for gameglass i guess.

Alt-Enter instead of double click.
No future. Incompatible with VR.
But a no brainer if you have a setup that could use it.
@Built2Fly, Can I use this in X-Plane 12?
Will it work with Xbox?
