The VL3 is a fun and so far the fastest Ultra Light aircraft in the world.  Six months ago, I made the ASI FIP Gauge for it with the original kmh and additional knots versions.  Since then, there’s no more new development for the aircraft as it basically runs on glass cockpits after all.

About a month ago, Lonn Agin in the US raised his interest of creating a new FIP gauge with the Flaps and Landing Gear indicators for the aircraft.  And he proposed some layout suggestions as well.
