Default RE: Project MFD..............

Ive also been working on this idea as well for my project, though I was initially taking a different route. I ripped apart a few cellphones and experimented with the idea. This coby 151 is definitely a better and neater solution.

at 1/6th scale, f-16 cockpits are still very small, but what about the possibility of modeling a block 60 cockpit? its a UAE version of the f-16 and beats modifying the pit in a non scale way simply to except the electronics.

on the f-22, the MFDs are much larger. my plan is to animate the largest MFD and use transfers backed with electroilluminescent light panels for the remaining 5 screens.

anyway, here is a pic of a block 60 f-16 cockpit with larger MFDs.



I just looked at the video, Very nice!! and I see that you were able to fit 2 MFds in even an f-16 cock. is this without modification? if so, these cobys are small enough to work on most scale subjects. Great find!!!
