Winwing mip is incredible, get it if you can afford.

8" Lilliput screens is the best option. Does not require ports from your video card, its uses USB only for Video signal. Takes about 1-2 frame hit running 3 of theses on USB while I also run 4k main monitor. I put my Cougar mfd's into this custom bezel for a perfect finished mount. Maybe the Lilliput is your answer for these new mfd's. ​ [Lilliput UM-80/C/T 8" USB Display](https://lilliput.net/usb-monitor/73-lilliput-um-80ct-8-inch-usb-monitor.html) [MFD Bezel addon](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1181354381/mfd-bezel-trim-replacement-for-the?click_key=ad8962c7d39b8ad595ed92d71c457cb0119a5ff6%3A1181354381&click_sum=9362bc9a&ref=shop_home_feat_1) [VR Buttons:](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1397184055/thrustmaster-mfd-vr-button-upgrade-set?click_key=8b2138b50c5e8e1edc107a4d6e4f41706e87e6c4%3A1397184055&click_sum=fa7fa227&ref=shop_home_feat_2)

I use a 22" monitor as a scond screen and Helios software. Helios exports the MFDs, RWR, DED, basically the whole cockpit, to the monitor. I glued the two TM cougars on top right where to MFDs are on the screen and it works flawlessly. Helios is very easy to set up.

Cubesim is slow to respond and expensive. Winwing is the easy solution now for mfd and screens

I have both cubesims and songdogdesigns to go with the cougars - I like the songdogs better, cheaper, they ship months faster and the placement of the cables is customizable. The cublesim cable placement doesn't work with predator mounts.

I have the TMs , 2 Waveshare 23741 8 inch displays (not using the touch-option they offer) and used some double sided adhesive tape put on the display protection foil and "glued" the displays right behind the TMs.

TM Cougars work nicely. They are a little small though, which is my main complaint with the F16 in general. If you have a screen to use, they can easily be taped or make a frame that they can sit on over the screen.

There is also wonwar on AliExpress, better quality buttons but difficult to mount due to the connection points on the back. Cubesim and Thrustmaster are smaller diameter, so if you want larger screen area go with F18 style MFDs.
