Real 737 CDU Entry Feel The WingFlex B737NG CDU brings route and FMC (Flight Management Computer) entries back to your fingertips, so you can work the CDU (Control Display Unit) flow without reaching for your keyboard or hunting on-screen buttons with a mouse. It’s modeled on the 737NG CDU layout and uses aviation-grade materials aimed at a more aircraft-like, training-style interaction. It’s built to work with Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) and X-Plane 11/12, but aircraft add-on support can be model-specific—so it’s best to verify your exact aircraft on the WingFlex website before you fly or update your setup. Fast Inputs, Backlit Keyboard To keep entries feeling responsive during busy phases, WingFlex builds the CDU around a high-performance processor and a physical keypad that’s designed for quick, repeatable inputs. If you want a more real-cockpit cadence, you can enable an optional random-delay effect for key entry and adjust it to your preference. The keyboard is backlit for low-light sessions, and the unit supports switching between left- and right-hand cockpit seats, which is useful if you fly from different viewpoints or share a cockpit layout. USB Setup and Firmware Updates Connection is handled via USB with a plug-and-play approach, aiming to keep installation straightforward on a Windows PC. To stay current, WingFlex supports online firmware upgrades through its Bridge Software, so you can update the device as supported aircraft integrations evolve.
