The control unit is equipped with 4-axis GVL224 on iron mechanics with bearings (it is possible to purchase separately as a mechanic KIT sets), two of them (the throttle and propeller pitch) with proximity sensors MagRez, the rest of the variable resistor, the four axes on the front of the variable resistor, 15 buttons, non-latching switch in the left position and locked in the right (useful for TC) on the handle ore, 8 buttons on the front panel of the base and 4 switch without fixing in extreme positions (more like 8 keys). Total have 8 axes and 32 buttons. The controller can connect more buttons and toggle switches, but then you have to use the mapper ... I wanted to avoid this. Controller GVL224-4096-8, also can set MJ16. Any other controller is acquired and installed by the buyer alone. The body is made of transparent acrylic 3 mm thick, going as 3D puzzle ... The size of the base is almost like a sheet of A4 (305 * 210mm). Housing height 50mm. Price $ 250

The second copy of "RUD 4x4" in the case of the "milk" acrylic and proximity sensors (magrezy) on all 4 axes mechanics, controller at 4096 samples per axle. The price of 200 US dollars.

Man these engine control units look amazing! Just out of curiosity, how hard do you think would it be to have a rudder toggle axis and/or toe brakes as axis inputs? I don't have much room in my Obutto Ozone for rudder pedals so if that is possible, that would be awesome. Also, do your units take USB controller priority vs. other devices? I've dealt with that problem a lot in sim racing and would like to try and avoid it as much as I can.

On the brake pedal and may work only need to install them for the return spring. Problems my controller work with other not met.

MRUS is a Mjoy controller with VID and PID 0001/0001 VKB Tiny Box VID and PID is 231D/011D Rudder is a MMjoy2 VID and PID is 8888/8888
And, you can set this VID/PID number as the buyer ask?

A option for don't use rudder pedal or twist rudder on joystick is a mini-joystick (PS2 like) on throttle, as this device is axis and have spring to return to center. Example the one in CH PRO throttle.
Or a solution like in the Saitek X-36 throttle, a rocker switch.

Individual order. Three mechanics, three resistors and the front panel instead of the handle switch. The rest of the standard like "RUD 4 * 4" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwQR0OPLltc

"RUD 4 * 4" with the new location of the front panel and processed (reduced a little) mechanics. Price US $ 160 + shipping. If outside Ukraine it is 20 US dollars.

One recommendation, could you add 8 way POV hat switches, 4 way directional hat and a X and Y axis on miniature joystick? I know that your throttle exceeds the CH Pro but it would be great to have these switches. Having the recommended switches will also help eliminate many singular 1 or 2 mode button switches on your layout making it "cleaner".
At the moment I do not have to dostupak good and not expensive 8 way POV hat switches. Now comes the development of mechanics for installation of the handle of 3D printing. It will be able to use 8 way POV hat switches. I did not understand what it means: "4 way directional hat and a X and Y axis on miniature joystick"...

Thank you for the response. The "4 way directional hat and a X and Y axis on miniature joystick" is found on the CH Pro Throttle. Here is a layout picture of the throttle, the "4 way directional hat and a X and Y axis on miniature joystick" is labeled on this picture as "Mouse Emulation":
I did not understand what it means: "4 way directional hat and a X and Y axis on miniature joystick"...
For "X and Y axis on miniature joystick"" he mean the "thumb stick" PS3 like (used in CH PRO Throttle, Thrustmaster TWCS throttle...) - today this device is very desirable by "space pilots" for that "6DOF" control
For "4 way HAT", is the conventional 4 micro-switch HAT around a pole.
In all commercial joystick available is not used 8 micro switch HAT - like the above picture for "HUD" maybe suggest, but 4 micro switch only, what make the "8 way" is the firmware that translated two near buttons pressed simultaneous as diagonals. For example: N and W pressed = NE diagonal.
This above internals (from TmW HAT) can be 4 or 8 way HAT for Windows/Games, depends on firmware.
Why "8 way HAT" is not much practical to use, sometimes trying press NE you end pressing N or E first (1)
With today 3D print is not difficult/expensive make HAT, in Debolestis Shapeways has some examples.
(1) - Using Alps 8 way micro (+ press button) switch this drawback is avoidable because the diagonals use a dedicated button - but at same time make then unusable in POV HAT position with conventional joystick firmware that expect two buttons pressed simultaneous.
So for my opinion. If i wanted to buy such a lever and had to choose if i take the one with the function id definately do so. If the additional cost isnt too high.

While this function in the finished product has not been used. If you are the first to order such a function, it will be +5 dollars to the total price.
