Desktop Twin Engine Throttle for Flight Simulation

This Throttle goes along with my G1000 setup.

Its main feature is the simple design and slim layout, which (unlike regular Throttle quadrants) fits on a desktop. Instead of rotary potentiometers and a clumsy gear mechanism, it uses 100mm ALPS linear audio potentiometers and ergonomic handles. Further, a thumbstick, an encoder and several switches, buttons, and LEDs are provided for individual configuration.

The housing is prepared for an Arduino Leonardo and gives enough room for individual wiring.

For mounting the Thumbstick a small PCB is used. Gerber data for online ordering (e.g. at JLCPCB) are included.

Alternatively, use the provided blank panel (in STEP Format) for your own hardware configuration and add holes as required.
