I am very happy with this B107 overhead panel. After the purchase, they kept me updated on the estimated shipping date. After a month, it arrived here in perfection condition, with the shipping protection option. Installation was well explained, so that made it very easy. Once you install it, the immersion in the simulator improves drastically. The Rowsfire software works perfectly with my PMDG 737-800. In 3 weeks, I have had multiple succesful flights from start to finish, and absolutely no issues. In the future, I will use Mobiflight to program the panel for other aircraft as well. Hopefully this panel will last many years and continue to bring me joy in the simulator.
After more than two months of testing, the D105 is working well for me and I am happy with the set. I use the Rowsfire D105 together with MobiFlight. After the initial setup and a few small hiccups, the controls are now working as expected. The PFD, MFD and audio panel make the MSFS 2024 experience much more realistic and enjoyable.
Because I already had three monitors connected directly to my PC and there was no room for an additional graphics card, I bought a USB-to-HDMI hub for the D105 displays. This solution is now working well in my setup.
One small downside is the supplied power adapters. There are three adapters included, but my package contained one UK plug and two US plugs. As I live in the Netherlands, I had to buy two additional US-to-EU plug adapters. It would be helpful if Rowsfire included EU plugs, or suitable plug adapters, as standard with orders for Europe.
Unfortunately, delivery took approximately 102 days, from my order on 23 March until final delivery on 3 July. I only started contacting Rowsfire in May, as there was still no clear progress or delivery by then. The original parcel was eventually held by customs, which made the process quite frustrating at times. Rowsfire ultimately sent a replacement D105 via DHL. I did have to pay import and handling fees, but Rowsfire honoured the agreement and reimbursed 50% of those costs.
I would especially like to thank Sara from customer service. Because of the time difference, responses sometimes took a little longer, but she remained friendly, helpful and clear throughout the entire process. She replied to my messages and ultimately helped arrange both the replacement delivery and the reimbursement properly. The refund was received as well.
In short: the delivery experience was long and far from ideal, but the product works well in my MobiFlight/MSFS 2024 setup. Thanks to Sara’s professional and patient support, everything was eventually resolved well.

This is a great addon for my home built simulator, the construction materials look to be of very good quality and it works perfectly with the Rowsfire app and Zibomod's 737 in X-Plane 12. I liked it a lot.
