I design and build metal throttle consoles for WWII flight simulators and virtual pilot's home cockpits. The production started to roll finally at December 2017.

If you feel the modern HOTAS-controllers are unsuitable to your Second Worl War home cockpit this is a great choice to you. Console has more axles, levers, steering wheels and buttons than any other similar throttle unit in the game controls marketing. I have a mirrored left-handed version too.

GOOD NEWS: I called to my friend who is a managing director of a big international music instrument company. He said that there are any problems to sell consoles also to non-EU countries (Canada, USA, Australia, Asia ym.). I must fill the Finnish Customs papers in their webpages and that's all. Because this is hand work product I can sell it without worries where ever I want! smile

Finnish Virtual Pilots member and 3D professional Pentti "Buffalo" Kurkinen designed a totally new handles to the Console. First 3D-prints are coming sales on September and all the new throttle consoles are provided with it from now on. More information are coming after prototypes are tested. Throttle handle contains three extra buttons, all together eight button functions.

Customers who have the old aluminum-rubber "home made looking" throttle and RPM handles can exchange to this new model EITHER sending the whole throttle console to me OR install it "do it yourself man" style! I inform soon what is the updating price to this product.

First 3D-print from the new throttle handle. Designer and manufacturer Pentti wrote, that it needs some small finalizing, but I say that it looks just perfect! :)

Hi Kanttori,

very nice throttle. I am wondering if there is any sort of detent for 0 position on the trim and the adj. stabiliser wheels.

The 3-turn precision potentiometer don't have any "snap" or 0-position in the middle, also those three rotary encoders (as trims) has any 0-position because of their structure as "two quicly buttons". They are like a mouse wheel.

Thanks for the info Kanttori. It would be a nice addition to have some tactile feedback of the neutral position, at least on the elevator and the adj. stabiliser.
Hakka päälle! smile

That prototype number 1 (picture above) was too thick (to my and couple of my squad mates' hands), it's diameter is 53 mm. Now Pentti has designed prototype 2 handles which diameter is 43mm (as my older comfortable aluminum handles). All the switches fits exactly inside it, it cannot be smaller than that. Throttle and RPM handles have also a new surface with nice and solid diamond shape. Pentti has painted it with three very thin rubber spray layers and send it soon to me. It looks relly good now! wink

EDIT: Here are the final throttle and RPM-levers. They are assigned on next week to my Squad mates new throttle console and I send more pictures after that how it looks. Handles' diameters are now 43mm.
