- This controller quadrant offers TPM, flaps and trim wheel controls for flight simulators. The controller features push pull controls for each throttle, prop and mixture. The throttle also features a locking nut as well, twist it to lock the throttle in place. A momentary switch for flaps, push up to raise flaps one notch and push down to lower flaps one notch, the switch auto returns to center. Also features a trim wheel with approximately 4 complete rotations for fine tuning the elevator during flight. This can be upgraded to a 10 turn potentiometer for 10 complete rotations for even finer control. Includes a desktop mount as well.
- No drivers are needed, just plug and play in Windows and Mac. Been tested and works perfectly in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020/2024 and X-Plane. It should work with any game that uses a joystick/controller in Windows as well. Does not work with Xbox or PS.
- This controller is 3D printed and hand made by me. Uses quality brand named linear sliders/potentiometers. Includes 10' USB Cable.
- Dimensions: (Main Body) 12" Long, 5.75" Deep, 2" Tall (Trim section 4" Tall).
- Free Domestic Shipping and Includes a 1 Year Warranty.
-
Trim Wheel Upgrade Option Available.
This upgrade uses a 10 turn Potentiometer in the trim wheel assembly which will give a more realistic sensitivity to the elevator trim, giving 10 complete rotations of the trim wheel vs the approximately 4 rotations without the upgrade.
- For International orders price and shipping costs do not include import fees/VAT your country may charge at time of delivery.
Really good feel in the levers on the TPM and very sharp looking 3D print overall. Is truly excellent quality and that's nice to see these days. Connected up to my desktop computer without a hitch.
This product is not only one of a kind in the market, but also an incredible tool that truly makes the flight simulator seamless to fly a Cessna unlike any other setup. My gripe however, is I believe mine came with a potentiometer issue. The 0% and 100% would not calibrate as an even 0-100 range no matter what I tried (roughly 2 hours of messing around) until finally it did [somewhat] but the only way I could get them to align was for one end of the throttle to be far less sensitive than the other which is annoying cause I have to feather the throttle between 600-1100 RPM or it jumps massively between these numbers. Again I can’t overstate how much I love the product, the idea of the product, and how it makes the simulator feel, anyone who wants to get a simulator for a Cessna setup there truly is no other option like it in terms of appearance, feel, and functionality. It’s just slightly frustrating for it to come with this issue.
Hey Luke, thank you for the generous review considering you are having some issues. Please get in touch with me and we can figure out what is going on as the issues you are describing are not typical. There should be a 5-10 minute calibration and sim setup and everything should then be working without issue.
Thanks,
Shawn
I have had the module for about three weeks. It was essentially plug and play into X-Plane 13 and worked flawlessly with the other control systems I have installed. The components have ample fine tune settings and respond easily to operation. This module very closely reflects the operation of a 172/182 that I fly regularly. The design of the push controls are very good and I see years of performance from them. The trim wheel was a little more challenging to setup and I had to make sure the wheel was centered, spinning too far result in a shocking popping sound that was a little off putting at first but once it was setup seems to work extremely well. The flaps control works very well, the only change I could suggest in its design would be to remove the snap up/down and replace with a more true to form sliding control option as is common on the 172. That is of course a small recommendation and not a limitation of the module. Overall the module has performed above expectations and I look forward to years of use from it. I would purchase it again given the option.
It's like the real cessna 206
The Cessna throttle and trim wheel was shipped quickly, was easy to set up, and most importantly it's solid. It doesn't feel like a flimsy easily breakable toy like some simulator parts and electronic interfaces do.
