Hello Lefteris & team,
Just discovered your website and I think I'll come back often... looking forward to that concorde! 
I'm considering to buy the MCP combo panel from VRinsight (http://www.vrinsight.com/).
This is a more generic MCP than those we see from CPflight, opencockpits and other well-known hardware builders. The advantage of this unit is the price (!) and the fact you can easily use it for a lot of different addons.
I had the opportunity to see the unit work together with the LDS 767. It works like a charm and is directly interfaced via the Level-D SDK. Unfortunately fr the PMDG birds VRi are using keyboard emulation to control the MCP as there is no SDK available. After reading their forum it seems that this keyboard emulation interface is a lot slower and less accurate than direct interfacing.
I was wondering if your company would consider developing an interface module for this hardware unit?
Good job so far! Keep it up guys! 
Regards, Sylvain |

Sylvain- let's use this forum post to register interest in the possible driver. I'd like to see if there is general interest in it before we can commit to authoring a specific driver for the unit. |

Thank you for your reply Lefteris! I think it's a good idea indeed to check if other VRi customers are interested in a flightsimlabs driver for the PMDG products too.
Best regards, Sylvain |

Hi Lefteris! I think it would be a very good idea to develope a driver for the VRinsight MCP combo panel. Should be work with 737, 747 and MD-11! Best regards Frank |

Hi! I'm flight panel developer at VRInsight. Thanks for interesting in our products. There're many customers who are flying with PMDG's aircrafts and want for our products to be interfaced directly instead of key-commanding. We, VRinsight welcome any suggestion for cooeratiive work in tech. or marketing... Hopes the driver kit available soon. Best Regards, Kook |

Hi Kook- We would be interested in such a proposal. In order to assume such a task, we'd like to calculate some numerics for the expected ROI. To gather up the data, perhaps it might be ideal for you to post a note in your website, asking your users to come over here, post in this forum, and let us know what demand there is for your hardware to receive a specialized driver. Best, |

I too would be very interested in and interface with my MCP and CDU from vrisight. I use it only with Level D 767 because of the excellant integration I would love to buy the PMDG series of aircraft but will not currently as they do not support my MCP and CDU.
Would love to see MD11 with the interface! |

Lefteris, I have just got the VRinsight CDU and would just love for it to connect direct to the PMDG737/744. I am pulling my hair out trying to get all the keys to work as they should. If you made a driver I would get it for the 737 iin FS9 and the 744 in FSX. Please think about taking this forward. Justin |

| Greetings all. I stumbled upon this because I just bought the SSTSIM Concorde which I am thrilled with. After reading about the MCP unit, and checking it out I can say I will be purchasing one of these units in the near future, so I wanted to chime in my .02 Definitely interested. |

Hello Lefteris & team, I am also highly interested in a SDK-based interface for my VR-Insight MCP/Combo panel to be used with the PMDG 744X, MD11 and the coming 737 NG for FSX. Sjaak |

Please add me to the list of those that would like drivers. I have both the CDU Panel and the MCP Combo Panel. I'm interested in both the 747 and also the MD-11. In both cases the FSX version. Regards Russell Jourdain |
