MOZA FMP18 Panel Bundle transforms a desktop into the command center of a carrier-based fighter, delivering satisfying clicks, crisp displays, and a layout that feels immediately familiar to virtual pilots. Built around true-to-life 7.1-inch square 800 × 800 displays and an magnetic modular quick-swap system, it combines thoughtful engineering with practical flexibility. Every switch, encoder, and button encourages confident inputs, while the rigid yet lightweight construction makes it easy to integrate into anything from a compact desk setup to a dedicated cockpit.
What Sets the MOZA FMP18 Panel Bundle apart?
A Complete Front Cockpit Experience Many front panels focus on individual instruments, but the FMP18 brings together the DDI displays, AMPCD, front panel, and UFC visor into one cohesive assembly. The full-width design creates a much stronger sense of sitting behind the controls, while the carefully matched proportions make instrument scanning feel natural during demanding carrier operations and tactical missions.
Modular Design That Adapts Easily The magnetic quick-swap system is more than a clever mounting solution. It allows compatible panel sections to be exchanged quickly without dealing with complicated hardware or rewiring, making it especially appealing for cockpit builders who enjoy flying different aircraft. The integrated Pogo Pin connection also keeps the installation looking tidy by reducing exposed cables between modules.
Displays Designed for Cockpit Use Instead of adapting common rectangular screens, the FMP18 uses dedicated 7.1-inch square displays with an 800 × 800 resolution that closely match the proportions of the original cockpit instruments. The result is cleaner presentation, better use of screen space, and fewer compromises when displaying multifunction pages that benefit from a square viewing area.
Controls Built for Fast Workloads With 95 buttons, 16 rotary controls, and 7 toggle switches, the FMP18 dramatically reduces dependence on keyboards and mouse inputs. Pilots can manage radios, navigation, weapons, and aircraft systems through dedicated physical controls, creating a more fluid workflow that many cockpit builders consider one of the biggest upgrades over touchscreen-only solutions.

The FMP18 is designed to fit a wide variety of cockpit builds thanks to its 75 × 75 mm VESA compatibility, official mounting clamp, and aluminum profile support. Its modular construction makes future layout changes straightforward, while MOZA Cockpit software allows each display to be assigned independently. It is intended for modern PC flight simulator environments and is not designed for standalone operation without a connected computer.
The USB-based design integrates easily alongside flight sticks, throttles, rudder pedals, and other common flight simulation hardware. The compact connection system helps keep cable management under control, and the lightweight composite construction places less stress on cockpit frames than heavier metal alternatives. It is not compatible with console-only flight simulation setups.
The MOZA FMP18 Panel Bundle is a PC-only cockpit system built for flight simulation software that supports exported multifunction displays and configurable cockpit controls. It works alongside MOZA Cockpit software and pairs well with leading PC flight simulators. It is not compatible with PlayStation or Xbox consoles, making it best suited to dedicated PC-based cockpit installations.
MOZA MGX1000 Instrument Panel brings the familiar Garmin G1000 layout to your desk with the satisfying click of every encoder and the crisp glow of every backlit label. Built around a true-to-size 10.4-inch IPS display and DisplayLink connectivity with no HDMI required, it slips neatly into complex cockpit setups while keeping cable clutter under control. The tactile controls feel reassuringly deliberate, the display stays clear even in bright rooms, and the compact design makes it equally at home on a desktop stand or as part of a dedicated flight deck.
What Sets the Moza MGX1000 Instrument Panel apart?
True G1000 Scale That Feels Right The full-size 10.4-inch display and 1:1 control layout give the panel proportions that closely match the Garmin unit pilots already know. Reviews have consistently praised how naturally muscle memory transfers between the simulator and the hardware, making scanning instruments and reaching for controls feel instinctive instead of forcing users to adapt to a shrunken interface.
DisplayLink Keeps GPU Ports Free Many competing glass cockpit displays require a dedicated HDMI connection, but the MGX1000 sends video over USB using DisplayLink technology. Home cockpit builders with multiple monitors have highlighted this as a welcome advantage because it frees graphics outputs, reduces cable clutter, and simplifies expanding from a single display to dual PFD and MFD configurations.
Controls That Reward Every Input The rotary encoders have crisp detents, the buttons provide positive tactile feedback, and the integrated 7-way ALPS joystick mirrors the workflow of the original avionics system. Early reviewers repeatedly point to the physical interaction as one of the strongest reasons to move beyond touchscreen or mouse-driven operation, especially during busy approaches or instrument procedures.
Built to Grow with Your Cockpit Rather than locking users into a fixed setup, each unit can be assigned as either a Primary Flight Display or Multi-Function Display through MOZA Cockpit software. Combined with VESA mounting, desktop support, telemetry-based lighting, and configurable button mapping, the panel adapts comfortably from a simple desktop installation to an elaborate multi-panel cockpit.

The MGX1000 fits comfortably into everything from a modest desktop setup to a dedicated home cockpit. It supports MOZA Cockpit software, 75 × 75 mm VESA mounting, and independent PFD or MFD assignment, making dual-panel installations straightforward. Because it uses DisplayLink over USB instead of HDMI, adding another panel does not consume an additional graphics output, which has been widely appreciated by cockpit builders.
The panel is designed around aircraft equipped with Garmin G1000 avionics. It works with native G1000 aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane, along with several popular third-party aircraft including the COWS DA40 and SimWorks Studios Kodiak 100. It is not intended for analogue steam-gauge aircraft or aircraft using different avionics suites such as Garmin G3000, Airbus, or Boeing flight decks without custom community solutions.
The MGX1000 is a PC-only peripheral built for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020/2024 and X-Plane 11/12. It does not support PlayStation or Xbox consoles, and it relies on MOZA Cockpit software together with DisplayLink drivers to handle display output and control mapping.
