Airbus A320 NEO Overhead FWD, full-scale 3D printable flight simulator panel, STL and 3MF files, multicolor FDM printing, DIY home cockpit and custom Korry pushbuttons.

Airbus A320 NEO Overhead FWD — Full-Scale DIY Flight Simulator Project

Welcome to the Materialize3D Airbus A320 NEO Overhead FWD project.

This is a full-scale, 3D-printable forward overhead panel created for home cockpit builders, flight simulator enthusiasts and makers who want to build their own Airbus-style simulator hardware instead of purchasing a fully assembled professional unit.

The project is published as Working in Progress (WIP). The current release already provides the complete set of printable FWD panel masks and the custom Korry pushbuttons. Additional project components will be added through future updates as they are finalized, tested and documented.

The product uses a fixed price. Buyers who purchase the project during the WIP stage will receive the planned future updates for the Airbus A320 NEO Overhead FWD package, provided that the updates remain within the defined scope of this project.

Current release includes

•Full-scale Airbus A320 NEO Overhead FWD panel masks.

•Custom printable Korry pushbutton components.

•Korry parts designed to be assembled individually by the builder.

•STL files for the released printable parts.

•3MF files prepared for multicolor 3D printing.

•Files tested through physical printing and assembly checks.

•Initial assembly information for the released parts.

•Access to future FWD project updates included with the purchase.

Planned future updates

The project is being developed in stages. Planned future updates may include:

•Additional mechanical components required to complete the FWD assembly.

•Rear support and suspension structure for the overhead panel.

•Further assembly documentation and updated instructions.

•Arduino Mega and MobiFlight integration information.

•Electrical organization, wiring references and connection documentation.

•Additional validation improvements based on testing and builder feedback.

The exact release order may change as the project is tested. Updates will be published progressively and versioned so that builders can identify what has changed between releases.

Important project status

This is an active WIP project and is not presented as a finished plug-and-play cockpit system.

The current package is intended for builders who are comfortable with 3D printing, basic mechanical assembly and incremental project development. The buyer can start printing and assembling the released masks and Korry components while the remaining FWD systems are being finalized.

The electronics and MobiFlight integration are planned for a later update and are not included as a completed system in the initial release.

The backlight system is not part of this first version. The current release is focused on the non-backlit printed panel configuration.

Printing requirements

•A multicolor-capable 3D printer is recommended for the intended printed appearance.

•The project is being validated with a Bambu Lab A1 Combo.

•The included 3MF files are intended to simplify multicolor printing.

•STL files are also included for builders who prefer to prepare their own projects.

•Bambu Lab PLA Basic is the reference filament family for the current validation workflow.

•Individual parts are designed to be printed on commonly available desktop 3D printers, subject to the final dimensions and orientation of each part.

The buyer is responsible for selecting suitable print settings, filament and hardware for their own printer. Printing results may vary depending on nozzle size, layer height, filament brand, calibration and slicer settings.

What is not included in the current release

•SolidWorks source files.

•A fully assembled physical overhead panel.

•Arduino Mega hardware.

•Switches, encoders, LEDs, wiring, power supplies or other electronic components.

•The completed MobiFlight configuration and electrical integration, which are planned for a future update.

•A completed rear suspension structure in the initial release.

•Backlight components or a backlit version of the panel.

•Filament, printer, tools, fasteners and other physical supplies.

Design and authorship

All published project files, panel layouts, printed graphics, mechanical parts and Korry designs included in this product were created by Materialize3D.

SolidWorks source files and the internal parametric design workflow are not included. The downloadable package is organized for manufacturing and assembly rather than for redistribution or further commercial design work.

This product is intended for personal DIY flight simulation and home cockpit construction. It is not an official Airbus product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Airbus.

Build philosophy

This project is designed to make a detailed Airbus A320 NEO Overhead FWD build more accessible to individual builders. It is not intended to hide the work involved in building a simulator panel. The Korry pushbuttons, for example, are supplied as printable components that must be assembled individually and require patience and careful work.

The goal is to provide a strong, practical and progressively documented foundation for builders who want to participate in the process and develop their own simulator hardware.

Recommended buyer profile

This project is suitable for builders who:

•Own or have access to a multicolor 3D printer.

•Are comfortable downloading, slicing and printing multiple parts.

•Understand that the product is delivered as a digital project, not as a finished physical panel.

•Are willing to assemble individual Korry components.

•Accept that the project is updated progressively during development.

•Want to build toward Arduino Mega and MobiFlight integration in future releases.

Version status

Current status: Working in Progress — initial FWD release.

Current package: Complete printable FWD masks and printable Korry components, supplied as STL and 3MF files.

Future development: Mechanical support, suspension structure, electrical integration and MobiFlight documentation are planned for subsequent updates.
