Does anyone make a USB landing gear lever with lights other than the Saitek unit with the other switches?

Steve,

Stand alone? Not that I am aware of. There is a "market item" idea.

There is the Goflight landing gear, flaps, trim unit.

There are plain repro gear levers from numerous suppliers intended for mounting in replica panels.

best,

Is it USB?

Also, I will have 2-15" monitors for my glass avionics. I am using an older Pentium model computer to run the avionics on the network. Can you recommend an inexpensive video card I should use to run the two av monitors on the networked PC?

The Goflight unit is plug and play usb.

As to the video card....... check with the avionics gauge suppliers for min requirements. Most don't take much "firepower". I'm running my Ellie ND and Standbys on an 8X AGP ATI 9600 Pro. Works fine.
