I've fooled with one. They might be acceptable for MFDs and the likes, but
don't expect miracles. Fortunately they're designed to display things like
the score and all that, so text comes out fairly readable. Refresh rate is a
bit slow so they ghost quite a bit, but, again, for MFDs they'll work fine.
I need at least a pair if I ever get around to building my somewhat CRJ
thing. Also need a couple of 15" monitors for the main tubes.
