- I've got a Logitech/Saitek Flight Instrument Panel for Microsoft Flight Simulator. I wanted to see if it were possible to display other graphics on this device or control it with an SDK. As it turns out, you can do this easily!
While the SDK gives almost complete control of the FIP, you can add/remove graphics through which the FIP will rotate just by writing JPGs to the right folder. I threw together this video to demonstrate. The code that I wrote is available on GitHub over at github.com/j2inet/YearInRevie....
While I don't suggest getting one of these panels for the sake of playing with one (they are pricy!) if you want to get one for yourself, find them on Amazon (Affiliate link) amzn.to/46rHjfa
I'll be digging further into the actual SDK for deeper control.

this Video is very usefull thanks
Hi
Thats awesome! I was wondering if there would be a way to have midi signals sent to it and use it as a visual metronome... kind of feel like im a step closer but also have absolutely no idea still lol
Hey thanks been looking for some early uploaded vids and i was wondering is this compatible with xbox and what cable does it use
Thanks
I doubt it is co oatible. But I'll give it a try. Will take a while to get it downloaded.
Nice video. Do you know which screen resolution has this screen?
320x240px
One question. Do those panel instrument function natively with MFS2020? Or do you need to install any adicional drivers or software? Thanks
You have to install a driver. Otherwise I believe they just worked. I can double-check for you on Saturday on a clean system. Message be back if I forget, there is a lot going on!
it works fore every Plane even fore Ships so go fore it
Thanks for the Video, I've changed the fip.Jpg and all good, but it's still flashing up with the S/N screen, any ideas?
Yeah, to prevent the serial number from showing, one has to interact with the screen through the API. I'm looking at the API now, and might make a small app just so that (1) I don't have to see the serial number and (2) I can change the interval at which the image changes.
Confirmed, when I display the image using the API, I don't have to see the serial number. Documentation on this API is very lacking though. Figuring things out, but at this point I can display custom images and detect button presses.
@@j2inet I've just installed SPAD NeXt as I wanted some of the FIP Gauges, so I've just got the gauges on permanently now, I guess that's one solution.
