Winctrl Launches New FCU Pro Panel for Airbus Cockpits with OLED Displays
By Sheyla Brill · · 2 min read
Winctrl (formerly Winwing) has introduced the FCU Pro panel, a replica of the Airbus A320's Flight Control Unit with high-resolution OLED displays and tactile buttons. It offers seamless integration with Fenix Simulations and ToLiss aircraft.
Winctrl, formerly known as Winwing, has unveiled its latest cockpit hardware: the FCU Pro panel, designed for Airbus A320-family simulations. This unit replicates the Flight Control Unit found in the real aircraft, featuring speed, heading, altitude, and vertical speed knobs with smooth detents. The OLED displays provide crisp, clear readouts of current settings, and the backlighting can be adjusted to match your sim environment.
The FCU Pro connects via USB and is compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-Plane 12. Out of the box, it integrates with the Fenix Simulations A320 and ToLiss A319/A320/A321, with pre-configured profiles that map all buttons and knobs correctly. For other aircraft, a software configuration tool allows remapping of every control.
Build quality is excellent, with a solid metal housing and sturdy knobs that feel like they could survive years of heavy use. The panel is priced at $299, making it a premium but accessible option for cockpit builders.
Early reviews praise the FCU Pro's precision and the satisfying tactile feedback of its buttons and knobs. It is a welcome addition to the Winctrl ecosystem, complementing their existing throttle quadrants and overhead panels.
