Description
MOZA FMP18 Panel Bundle transforms a desktop into a carrier-style cockpit with thoughtfully engineered controls, sharp displays, and a layout inspired by the legendary F/A-18. The true-to-life 7.1-inch square displays deliver crisp 800 × 800 visuals, while the magnetic modular quick-swap system makes changing panel configurations remarkably simple. Every button, rotary control, and switch provides a confident mechanical feel, making startup procedures, navigation, and combat tasks satisfying from the first checklist through the final trap aboard the carrier.
What Sets the MOZA FMP18 Panel Bundle apart?
-
Square Displays That Match the Aircraft Layout – Many competing cockpit panels rely on conventional rectangular screens that compromise proportions. The FMP18 instead uses dedicated 7.1-inch square displays, creating a much closer visual match to the aircraft's DDI and AMPCD layout. Builders across the community frequently appreciate hardware that avoids stretched graphics and provides a cleaner presentation throughout every stage of flight.
-
Magnetic Modular Expansion – The magnetic quick-swap system with integrated pogo-pin connections makes changing layouts refreshingly straightforward. Rather than rebuilding an entire cockpit for different aircraft, users can swap compatible panels quickly while maintaining a tidy installation. This flexibility has become increasingly popular among enthusiasts who regularly fly multiple aircraft without dedicating permanent space to each one.
-
Controls Designed for Confident Operation – With 95 buttons, 16 rotary controls, and seven toggle switches, every command has a distinct mechanical feel. Pilots often praise hardware that communicates each input through touch, reducing the need to look down during busy carrier approaches or complex weapon management. The result is a cockpit workflow that feels deliberate and highly satisfying.
-
Easy Integration Into Existing Cockpits – Standard 75 × 75 mm VESA compatibility, an adjustable desk clamp, and aluminum-profile support allow the FMP18 to fit naturally into a wide variety of simulator rigs. MOZA Cockpit software also lets users assign displays and customize controls, making the bundle equally appealing for dedicated carrier cockpits or expanding an existing simulator.

Designed for PC-based flight simulation, the FMP18 integrates with MOZA Cockpit software for display assignment, button mapping, and rotary control customization. The magnetic quick-swap system allows compatible modules to be exchanged rapidly, while standard VESA mounting and aluminum-profile compatibility make installation straightforward across many cockpit designs.
The included angle-adjustable clamp supports both the complete assembly and individual modules, allowing builders to tailor positioning without replacing mounting hardware. The lightweight composite construction also reduces the load placed on simulator frames while maintaining excellent rigidity.
PC is the supported platform, making the bundle suitable for major flight simulators that support custom cockpit hardware. Gaming consoles are not supported, and the system is intended for users building dedicated desktop or cockpit-based flight simulation environments.
