I went the light weight &some may say "cheap" route. Ifound the stock plastic parts too thin & cracked easily so I made my own. It's 1/16" ply base with balsa structure. For screens I cut squares out of a 7-UP (or Sprite)bottle and sandwiched them between a wood layer. Ithen used a paint marker to make some buttons/dials, primed & painted with Rustoleum Stone Grey and added a pilot. I admit it was kinda a rush job, but its simple &functional for me.
