Does anyone know of the existance of a throttle with more than one lever that can be moved independantly?

If not commercial maybe someone build it and is willig to share some info on how to make it.

I would like to fly propplanes like DC3 or DC6 and be able to have some engiens shut of!

Thanks for your help.

Check you Email :-).
If you want to build something yourself: checkout file rcbth-10.zip from the Flightsim.com or avsim.com lib.
Gives you 4 independant levers, so:
- 4 throttles
- 2 throttles plus 2 mixture levers
- or any other combination you like.

If you can find a Suncom dual throttle they work great for flying twin engine aircraft. Electronics Botique had a bunch of them a while ago and when Suncom went out of business they put them out for sale for $25-$30. I have two sets on my system, one for left and right throttle, the other for left and right prop pitch. This is the ultimate setup for flying turboprops. You may have to go to EBay to find them now. They are a bit tricky to configure for the first time but well worth the time spent and they are very inexpensive. If you find a set and need help setting them up E-Mail me and I'll help you.

Roelof,

Is your Email correct ? (I get "undeliverable")

Depending on your current equipment, and desires, you MIGHT want to wait until this fall when CH products is going to release a stand-alone throttle quadrant. I have the Pro Pedals and Flight Yoke, and will wait and see what comes out. I may buy it, as the preliminary description interests me....

Hi,

Too bad I live in The Netherlands. We don't have that many shops for this kind of thing.
