Delivery Rates to mainland UK (excluding large and/or heavy items)

Delivery is to ground floor/kerbside only, if you have special delivery instructions you must contact us to ensure that we can have the best chance of success in delivering the item. We required items to be signed for.

Delivery dates are Monday to Friday unless otherwise specified

Delivery cut off is 3-4pm on most items - earlier time exceptions are large items, high value items, items requiring a pallet (i.e bulk orders) or items which direct ship from the manufacturer or supplier. If you order after cut-off then the order is processed the next day, that means if you ordered Tuesday at 8pm at night, the next day delivery option (if applicable) is Thursday as the order is processed on the Wednesday.

On a large number of items we offer a free delivery service.

Delivery Rates to Highlands, Islands, Northern Ireland & Remote Areas - (excluding screens and Touch Screens)

Non mainland and the Highlands and Islands - this includes anything that goes over water that does not have road access. These rates are determined by couriers based on postcode. If there are multiple items then we may need to quote you for delivery.

This should automatically calculate at the checkout when you enter your address, but sometimes needs to be calculated on a case-by-case basis, please contact us for a quote in this instance.

Screens & Digital Displays

These also have a standard rate ranging upwards from £15 + VAT depending on the size of the product and delivery location, for particularly large/heavy items this is quoted on a case-by-case basis please contact us for a price.

Delivery Rates to Republic of Ireland & rest of EU

We can still ship most items outside of the UK, however, this is quoted on a case-by-case basis so orders cannot be placed through the online checkout without a quoted delivery fee. We can also supply the goods with zero-rated VAT for exports outside the UK. Goods are supplied on DAP Incoterms for exports and we can also accomodate for you to use your own courier to collect the goods from us.

Returns

Faulty Items

Goods Reported Faulty Within 14 Days of Receipt.

If you have a faulty item and are reporting the fault within 14 days of receipt. When the goods are returned to us complete, we’ll issue a full refund to you via your original payment method. We will try and ensure that there is a fault, that often requires is running diagnostics or getting the manufacturer to speak to you directly to determine whether there is a genuine fault rather than just a set up error. 

Goods Damaged in Transit

If your goods were damaged in transit it must be reported to us within 3 days. If goods are visibly damaged on receipt the delivery note must be marked accordingly. Once the damaged goods have been collected and received back into our warehouse, we’ll issue a refund via your original payment method. We will require pictures of the damage.

Consumers - If You Have Changed Your Mind – this is for personal use not business or organisations

If you are a private consumer and have changed your mind as long as the goods have not been in your possession for over 14 days, and the item can be sold again as new, then you are entitled to return the goods to us. If the item you are returning is a projector, the lamp hours used must not have exceeded 2 hours otherwise a re-stocking fee will be applied. The cost of returning items is the responsibility of the customer. As new means in original packaging with complete accessory packs and manuals. If any item is marked/damaged, including the packing, there may be a restocking fee. Please contact us directly before sending any goods back to obtain an RMA number without this there may be a delay in dealing with your return. If you purchased for a company, or an organisation you are not deemed a Consumer by law.

Using projectors in the construction and operation of flight simulators offers a range of significant benefits, both in terms of immersion and practicality. This technology has become a cornerstone in professional flight simulation environments, contributing to realistic training experiences for pilots, aviation enthusiasts, and engineers alike.

Enhanced Immersion and Realism

The most compelling advantage of projectors is their ability to create a highly immersive environment. Unlike monitors or VR headsets, which can limit a user’s peripheral vision or cause discomfort over time, a well-designed projection system can envelop a trainee in a 180-degree or even 360-degree field of view. This panoramic display mimics real-life visibility from a cockpit, allowing pilots to respond to visual cues naturally, such as runway alignment, cloud formations, or changes in weather conditions.

Furthermore, projectors can deliver large-scale, life-size representations of cockpit views without the need for physical screens or headsets. This contributes significantly to situational awareness and spatial orientation, critical aspects of real-world flying.

Scalability and Flexibility

Projectors provide unmatched scalability. Multiple projectors can be blended to create seamless, wraparound displays that simulate the entire sky and landscape. This is particularly valuable for full-motion simulators where the surrounding environment needs to respond dynamically to pilot inputs. The modularity of projector setups allows developers to build systems tailored to the type of aircraft being simulated, whether it’s a commercial airliner or a small private jet.

Additionally, projectors can be adjusted to fit different room sizes and geometries, making them highly adaptable for both large training facilities and smaller home-based setups. Lens shift, zoom, and keystone correction features help maintain visual accuracy even in less-than-ideal physical spaces.

Cost-Effectiveness Over Time

While the initial cost of high-quality projection systems can be considerable, they tend to be more cost-effective in the long run compared to an array of high-end monitors. Maintenance is extremely straightforward, with lamp replacements a thing of the past with laser & LED projectors now at the forefront. The total cost of ownership often turns out to be lower than setting up and maintaining multiple large displays.

Moreover, projectors reduce the need for additional supporting infrastructure. There’s less demand for structural mounting systems, cabling, and power management compared to using dozens of LED screens or multiple computers driving those screens.

Visual Fidelity and Seamless Blending

Modern projectors now offer ultra-high resolution (up to 4K and beyond), high contrast ratios, and bright, color-accurate imagery. This is vital for a convincing simulation experience, especially when replicating different lighting conditions like dusk, dawn, or low-visibility scenarios.

Edge-blending and warping technologies further enhance the simulation experience by removing seams between images from different projectors, delivering a continuous, uninterrupted visual field. This contributes to reduced eye strain and better visual flow, which are essential during extended training sessions.

Future-Proofing and Integration

Projectors can be easily integrated with simulation software, motion platforms, and control hardware. They are compatible with widely used flight simulation engines such as X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator, supporting real-time rendering with minimal latency. Additionally, as projector technologies advance - such as the emergence of laser and LED-based light sources - flight simulator setups can be upgraded incrementally without overhauling the entire system.
