HEeeHeeeHeee you copied my errors :D

With this cockpit, panels should be 30studs high, 26 stud wide and top/bottom edges should be 17 studs long.
I say this because right now I am trying to create a panel to these numbers and boy it doesn't want to fit into this dimensions :D

Did you alter gun design or used the one with droid arms, T-pieces and so on?

Sorry, I meant no harm! I do see now though it was kind of rude. Sorry. 

You have obviously added a lot of improvements. This is a great evolution of a "general design idea", particularly new panel cores with inverted 1x2 jumper plates and old technic plates look very nice, and I am quite fond of the winch elements flanking the glass canopy. Yet at the same time, the biggest major issue plaguing my design also shows here, and this and only this is what I meant.

Notice how long the upper and bottom edge of the panel is. 

With about 30-high panel, these should be whopping 17 to 17.5 stud long! 
And both you and me have 8 + 6 tiles and the somewhat rounded edge of the hinge giving, say, 1 more... which leaves us with 15.

Now what this does is that both our models have the panels too "streamlined", which looks cool, but ultimately is not "proper". 

...and if you try to do it right, then there are issues with gaps forming near horizontal spoke... 

Cheers!
