I am considering the Infinity aerospaace military style stick grip to contral the flaps and the electric trim tabs as well as a push-to-ytalk buttton. Anyone have any expeerience with this company? Is fighter pilot style stick grip beneficial in any way on a Lightning? I also need to buy the tape (in white) to seal the gap where the wing meets the fuselage. Can anyone tell me the name of the recommended tape for there. THx, CD

I've got the Infinity stick grips on my RV-8 and love them. I've got the buttons as follows:

Trigger = PTT
Center Coolie Hat = Elev/Ail Trim
Left Top Toggle = Flaps
Right Top Green Push = Starter
Left Thumb Push = Autopilot Engage/Disengage
Pinky Push = VP-200/EFIS Ack Button
Pinky Pull = EFIS Page Swapping

JD at Infinity is great to work with and he will go to great lengths to get the button configuration that just right for your installation and personal needs. Basically, he can put any kind of button in any position.

The grips feel good in your hand and all button access is easy and intuitive.

Highly recommend.

I've included a wad of photos from my wiring and installation for reference.

Charles, I purchased these grips and found them to be very high quality, and
the people real nice to deal with. They will customize them any way you
want. Tex
