Immersion in theft is significantly increased. In addition to the communication functions (COM1, COM2), the Radio Panel also allows you to make the appropriate settings for the navigation (NAV 1, NAV 2, ADF) and have real-time important information such as speed and distance ( DME).
I use the radio with FS2004 Panel (for now ...) without any hardware conflict.
The manipulation of frequency control knobs allows immediate interaction with the display on the instrument board the airplane, and without any delay.
The four radio panel screens are very readable (although it can detect very subtle differences in light intensity between display segments).
Why 4 stars instead of 5? Because of too sensitive frequency adjustment buttons, and mode selector buttons (COM1, COM2, NAV 1, NAV 2, ADF, DME, XPDR) too hard! This is particularly the latter which is a troublesome to use. One solution is to replace them with slightly larger buttons (?). Maybe not this just a youthful indiscretion that Saitek will endeavor to correct later ...
The value is excellent. This product can be recommended for all aviation enthusiasts wishing live flight experiences more realistic. I RECOMMEND !!!
