Re: Throttle build diary
I can't bear to look. The progress is lightening fast and leaving mine way back in the dust. What a fantastic TQ. What was the final make price after all materials and completed?
That TQ Looks like something you'd pick up from new. Knowone would know you made that yourself.
Keep up the great work

Re: Throttle build diary
You wouldn't believe the cost Gez.
If i add it all up roughly we are talking about 200 euro, that includes your supply of the handles, the open cockpits axis card and phidgets slide pots and all postage paid lol. With home made handles a hacked joystick and cheaper pots, probably less than a hundred.
My main purpose of posting my flightdeck build is hopefully to demonstrate just how achievable nice results can be without having too much money.
I cant tell you how many hours have gone into it so far cos i didn't keep a log but its my biggest longest project so far and i still have the overhead to look forward to
