Wingflex Simulator took to the stage on Saturday at FSExpo 2026, taking place in Minneapolis/St. Paul, to announce a slew of new additions joining their product catalogue of peripherals for desktop flight simulators. Wingflex also announced its commitment to designing and producing full-scale products for desktop home simulators.
The first product announced was the DAP500, or Digital Autopilot Panel 500, geared more towards General Aviation setups. It is also the company’s first venture into the general aviation space. The DAP500 is inspired by the Garmin GFC500 and features support for essential IFR and GA flying capabilities.
It is also an open HID product that enables users to customize key binds with various software applications and is “plug-and-play”. It also features an automatic light sensor that adjusts the backlighting of the panel automatically. It comes with an aluminium stand. The launch price is set at USD159, but an early bird pre-order discount can net you a purchase price of USD139. Pre-orders start today (13th of June 2026).
The next addition to their lineup is the GMP or Gear Management Panel. The GMP features a die-cast aluminium gear handle, and the team behind the product made sure to accurately represent the tactile feeling, correct resistance, and working order to get it operational. The toggle switch features a hall effect sensor, while the panel itself features an auto-sync local clock, hydraulic indicator, and a modular design. The product will launch in September 2026, priced at USD189 including shipping fees.
Wingflex Sim then revealed its ECAM Control Panel or ECP, which launches in December 2026. The ECP has been designed with 1:1 full-scale functional and tactile-feeling knobs and buttons, accurately reflecting the real-world functionality found on Airbus aircraft. It will also seamlessly connect with their upcoming DP320 display and is a key feature of the product. The price point is set at USD99 with global shipping.
This segways into their next product announcement, which, as mentioned above, is the DP320 or Cockpit Flight Display, and also launches in December 2026. The DP320 features a 12-inch display at 1920x720p HD resolution running at 60Hz. It is a 2.67:1 aspect ratio screen. This allows you to present the ND, PFD, and engine gauge displays in three perfect squares. It also features physical knobs and switches similar to the real-world Airbus setup. The price point is set at USD199 and includes global shipping.
Wingflex Simulator then reveals the Airbus Tiller as part of its upcoming lineup, allowing for a more realistic taxi experience in-sim. The Airbus Tiller features a realistic handle shape, fine-tuned spring tension, and a strong physical base to replicate the feel of real-world taxi operations. The price was revealed to be USD99, including shipping.
As part of their plans for product releases next year, Wingflex then revealed the BN 777 Glareshield Combo, geared more towards Boeing fans. It is a full-scale unit that is designed around the real-world Boeing 777 cockpit. It was revealed to be around 90cm wide. A price point was not mentioned, but an expected release date was revealed to be March 2027. Only part of the combo will be going on sale at USD199, and that is only the MCP panel; the EFIS panel price points/release dates will be revealed later.
Coming up next is the Airbus Throttle Standard, which is a full-scale replica of the real-world Airbus aircraft throttle quadrant. It features a 1:1 travel angle and distance as the real-world aircraft “with no compromise”. It also aims to replicate the mechanical feeling of the real aircraft as closely as possible, and friction is tuned into the product mechanically and not simply by using some sort of damping grease. Prices will be announced at a later but release is expected to be around May of 2027.
Wingflex also revealed the Airbus Throttle Pro, which is a step above the Standard version and is a full-scale, fully accurate throttle quadrant complete with metal throttle levers and motorized trim wheels with accurate indicators. It is also modular, so users can customize it any way they prefer. Wingflex aims to start shipping units in October 2027.
A slew of exciting product reveals from Wingflex, who are popular and well-known for its Airbus hardware for home desktop flight simulators. Check out some of their product live in-person at booth 714 if you are attending the expo.
