which nav instruments to keep in Helicopter simulator

[hsv]

Hi all

 

I have a full scale MD500e simulator with T shape instrument panel. I have  HSI. VOR1 and ADF instruments plus I have a stand alone wet compass The HSI is centered in the middle of my instrument panel 

with the VOR1 and ADF bottom left 

I'm using the default FSX se radio panel. I want to keep the hsi, but as for  the vor1 and adf which instrument should  I keep 

I want to keep the sim more VFR than IFR

hsv, how far into the cockpit build are you? If you'd share a pic of what you have built or plans, it'd be easier to give  you some ideas. Best suggestion at the moment is to look online at actual cockpits, especially ones that are NOT high end corporate aircraft. A little more details and I'd be happy to offers some assistance.

You got me thinking about different cockpits I've flown with in RL, to include the OH-6. I did a search of various 300 cockpits on the web.

The two I've attached should be a good starting point, the difference being inclusion (or not) of an HSI, DG, and turn coordinator.

The first one is simple and easy, great for VFR flying. I added the OH-6 panel in case you go military with your creation.

Good luck.
