cougar mfd lcd screen brands

This panel is an excellent size and quality for the Logitech Cougar MFD panels. I attached a trimmed piece of plexiglass to the monitor frame with velcro strips for easy removal, and then attached the Cougar MFD panels to the plexiglass to keep from directly touching the screen. Works like a charm and the quality of the monitor is shockingly good for the price.

For a very long time now I"ve been looking at options for putting screens behind my MFDs and seen many different solutions which do the job but could be refined and made easier if there were something that was made specifically to fit the TM cougar.

I"ve reached out to a number of manufacturers to address this and requested pricing for a dedicated screen to fit the back of the cougar. I"ve requested the initial specs as follows to give them all a benchmark to start with:

MFD Cougar is a great hardware option for the gamers that don"t want to / can"t use a VR headset, and need extra physical buttons. In DCS World, combined with Helios Virtual Cockpit (free software), you can export on a second monitor all the in-game screens. By attaching the MFD Cougar over the second screen, you can push the buttons while looking at the simulated screens of the airplane, in the middle of each of the 2 controllers. Good quality and quite a few mounting options (with or w / oa LCD screen). The brightness of the buttons can be controlled via software or by pushing a combination of the physical buttons (14 + 15 + BRT up or 14 + 15 + BRT down) and is memorized within the device itself.

With as much as 20 programmable buttons and four sliders, the Thrustmaster MFD Cougar is a real replacement for the keyboard while flying. With two MFD’s (Multi-Functional Displays) in one pack you have a lot of keyboard shortcuts within reach, and you can fully concentrate on flying.

The MFD Cougar has an internal storage on which our personal settings can be saved, which is very convenient. This comes in handy especially when you want to connect your panels to another system because this way you do not have to configure your buttons and switches again.

The two Multi-Functional Displays are life-size replicas of the U.S. AirForce F-16 Fighter. The MFD’s buttons are backlit, and both MFD’s come with an acrylic glass window that slides into the MFD Cougar along with a pre-printed card. Maps can also be downloaded from the Thrustmaster website and can be printed and modified to suit your needs.

2 Plexiglas windows per MFD to insert one of the 3 pre-printed cardboard layouts with presets for "Microsoft Flight Simulator X" (each cardboard layout corresponds to one of your choice of 3 presets: Generic / Light Aviation / Airliner).

These have been around for a while, but they still do what they"re supposed to. It would be awesome if someone came up with a mass produced active screen kit that just worked, lots of users keep trying to com up with their own solutions.
