Thrustmaster MFD Cougar Pack Review [Updated 02 May 2010] Print
Written by swaty   
The name of MFD Cougar Pack points us to HOTAS  Cougar. And yes Thrustmaster release another part of F-16C Cockpit!

 

 

These MFD are used to to F-16 after version C if I remember well and you can check below the real F-16 cockpit on the left and Falcon 4.7 cockpit on the right.


Thrustmaster released the panel of these MFD. The picture below shows the product just after installation. In our opinion it's obvious from the first moment how helpful there are for Falcon.


  



1.Packing

MFD Cougar Pack έρχεται comes in a small packet. Durable but devices look somehow poky. USB cables are folded and some users report problems (lights went off)  but after almost two months we don't have any issues..

 

 

The packet contains:

  • Two (2) Panels MFD
  • Two (2) Stands (bases) for the desk  
  • Four  (4) transparent sheets
  • Ten (10) paper cards. Six of those are for  Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and FSX plug-ins.
  • Drivers (mini CD )
2.  Installation

The installation procedure is very easy. We can use mini  CD that comes in the box or download software from  Thrustmaster's support site.

After installation,we can see the devices in Game Controllers and we have access to Thrustmaster's  control panel:
 

 

We can set up and operate up to 8 MFD. There are few settings we can do here:

  • Check functionality
  • Turn on /off the LEDs
  • Configure back lit/ LED intensity.   


MFD Cougar Pack  provides two plug-Ins for use in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and FSX. Each Plug-In comes with 3 presets: Generic profile , Light  Airliner  profile and Aviation profile. More details later on the review.
