A Closer Look at the New Rowsfire A117
A physical 1:1 scale A320 glareshield panel designed to bring more realism and interaction into your home cockpit.
What Is the A320 Glareshield Panel?
If you have spent time building an A320 home cockpit, you have probably noticed one thing: some controls are simply more satisfying to operate as physical hardware.
The glareshield sits directly in front of the pilots, just above the main instrument displays. It is one of the most visible and frequently used areas of the A320 cockpit, alongside the FCU and EFIS controls.
For flight simmers, adding physical glareshield hardware means you no longer have to rely entirely on the mouse or on-screen controls.
That is where the new Rowsfire A117 A320 Glareshield Panel comes in.
Meet the New Rowsfire A117
The A117 is a 1:1 scale A320 glareshield warning light panel designed for home cockpit builders.
Its purpose is simple:
Put the controls and visual feedback where you expect them to be — physically, right in front of you.
Instead of another software window on your monitor, the A117 gives your cockpit a dedicated physical panel with:
- 1:1 scale A320 layout
- Real physical keys
- High-visibility backlighting
- Metal enclosure
- Real-time light synchronization
- USB connection
- Rowsfire App and MobiFlight support
Why Add a Physical Glareshield?
For many simmers, the difference isn't about having more buttons. It's about where those buttons are and how they feel when you use them.
Built for a Realistic A320 Home Cockpit
The A117 is designed to fit naturally into an A320 home cockpit setup rather than looking like a standalone desktop accessory.
Its 1:1 scale dimensions and physical layout help maintain the proportions and positioning of the real cockpit environment.
For builders who are already adding physical Airbus hardware, this makes the A117 a natural next step toward a more complete cockpit setup.
1:1 Scale. Real Hardware.
The A117 combines physical construction with the details that make a simulator cockpit feel more immersive.
Made for Simmers Who Want More Than a Screen
The A117 combines physical hardware with software support.
With the Rowsfire App, the A117 is designed for straightforward plug-and-play operation. MobiFlight is also supported for users who want more advanced customization.
Whether you're building your first physical A320 cockpit or expanding an existing setup, the A117 is designed to become part of the larger simulator experience.
