jackc Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Wondering what setup people have for throttles control panel mounted for left and right seats? Mine has only one lever mounted near left knee at lower height door frame. i need dual throttles.......
Blueadventures Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Maybe reposition in centre on panel. Left seat - left hand on stick, right hand throttle. Right seat - right hand on stick and left hand on throttle. Almost straight away your comfortable with flying from left seat. Been there done this in Skyfox taildragger. Cheers. 1

Blueadventures Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 Ok. You could set up two push pull throttles onto levers on a torque tube inside the panel then another lever will move your existing throttle method. That’s the method I am using. You can see in the Skyranger Nynja build how this works. They have both push pull and a lever set up. Hope this helps. 1
