Hello vaipe,
I am not planning a bigger homecockpit at the moment. I sometimes use 2 android tablets as instrument display.
Waht is the current state of your project ?

yes, that's the same with my panel at the moment.
it might be possible to make one protocol file for all supported planes, or use web sockets to read write properties ?
and LCD is used to show what plane settings are selected from Arduinos code.
with my panel that is not necessary. Value to property mapping is done in the protocol file.
I made protocol files for 5 planes so far:
https://gitorious.org/fg/lasermans-fgda ... b:Protocolmaybe you can use & improve them. It took me a long time to find out how different planes name their properties
(btw: I have not seen much of homecockpit topic's in internet which are related to Flightgear)
The FSX community is a bit larger than ours. But if you find a open-source and open-hardware project of another sim it will be easy to adapt to flightgear.
