Title: Ideas on housing the joystick and throttle quadrant
Post by: slipstream on July 14, 2010, 09:31:55 pm

How do you guy's support these items, as I need a stable base to fly properly. Of course with a yoke its easy as it comes with a clamp. Any help, photo's tips appreciated.

Here's what I use: http://www.advantagehobby.com/product.php?productid=43375&cat=654

Stick one side to the stick and throttle and the other side to the desk. http://fsxproblueangels.com/phpBB3/download/file.php?id=56&mode=view

Dear Slipstream,

I don't know if this helps, this is what I use, the joystick and throttle are held in place by the Saitek-supplied suction pads.  Don't forget, it's not a fight between you and the controls, you will win.

If you look carefully you will see the current IFLOLS is a bit big.

Good luck,

Tregarth

Everytime I go on photobucket it tells me i'm the 999,999,999th customer. Funny that. I like the theory but I don't like the positions. I have to have the joystick and throttle exactly where they are supposed to be. You have a nice set-up there my friend.
