Hi everyone, I create this chat to centralize the information that can help me accomplish my project.
I would like to make a Boieng 777-300er cockpit, one or two seats.

Being limited in budget, I plan to build the majority in DIY, with the main panels purchased (Winctrl, winflex, hispapanels, etc.).
The MIP will be made of 10mm plywood, the pedestrian in aluminum frames that I found at motedis.com, which make quite interesting and custom-made profiles.
The dimensions are very difficult to find, I was able to find the FCU, the EFIS, the dimensions provided by the sellers of simulation equipment. Nothing for MIP or pedestrian.
The AI didn't help me much either in view of the low resources available, unlike the A320 where you can even buy the ready-made plans!
I then plan to make all this work on MSFS 2024 with PMDG 777-300, and configure the cockpit with mobiflight.
If anyone has advice, I'm a taker.
Thank you in advance,
Thomas.

You could import an image of the cockpit poster into your 3D design software and scale the image so that a known dimension like the MCP width and height will match. Then you can measure everything else off the scaled image.
It is not going to be perfect to the mm but I think close enough for simming.

Most aviation panels follow the Dzus standard for dimensions. You may also use this knowledge to round your measurements to the nearest Dzus compliant measurement.
