Hello all.  Well I have never been happy with  the Cessna type of push pull throttle.  I much prefer throttle levers, (  old habits hard to break).  Plus I feel you can get more precise control,  there is a reason you only see throttle levers in large aircraft.  So  I came up with a design for the XL.  Just got it hooked up today and really  like it.  I still have some tweaking, but I am happy with the  configuration.   I also have it designed so that when you push  full throttle up for touch and goes, go around, or take off, your left hand is  close to the carb heat, flaps, and boost pump.  If you want to see the  details check out my web site.

  

 Cheers

  

 Matt

When I sat in it and tried it out I really didn't have any problem.  With 

the reclined position my left hand was at about my knee.  Which is about the 

same position as my right hand on the stick.  It actually feels fairly good.



Cheers
