Following the success of their MiniFCU product, MiniCockpit is back with its 2024/2025 roadmap, which includes a number of new Airbus-related products.
A total of four new products were revealed by the team on social media that will cover different areas of an Airbus cockpit. This includes the overhead panel, the EFIC, the radio stack and the ECAM area. They are named as such:
- miniOVHD
- miniRMP
- miniECAM
- miniEFIS
Starting with miniOVHD, this panel will allow you to control elements such as the aircraft’s lights, select overrides of a flap 3 landing, and also various APU controls. The controls chosen were selected specifically from Airbus SOPs that are most commonly used. miniRMP is a “unified com/nav controller” which will be VATSIM/IVAO compatible. You will be able to select radio frequencies, radio channels and also input squawk code information.
As for miniECAM, you will have the ability to press buttons that will show specific screens on the ECAM display, whereas miniEFIS allows you to change settings on the navigation display, start the chrono timer and set the pressure.
MiniCockpit wants to transform your desk into an Airbus aircraft, without taking up huge amounts of room in your home at a reasonable price. No further dates or prices for these new products were given but the MiniFCU was a big success thanks to its fairly low barrier to entry.
MiniFCU Now Fenix Compatible
Another point to note is that the MiniFCU is now compatible with the latest Fenix A320 release, giving simmers another way to control the Airbus aircraft.
