Keith,
I installed dual throttle quadrants in my Elite LWFG. I got them from
Beechhurst Industries ( http://www.beechhurst.com/Quads_Recip.shtml
They are extremely well made. I slaved the two throttles so they operate
together. You can see my installation at Sony ImageStation
http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4291366131
(you have to join – it’s free).
I just started flying (got 16 hours on my plane) and love it.
Regards,
Kevin Steiner
Scottsdale, AZ

Subject: REFLECTOR:Quadrants vs. push-pull controls
I'm getting things lined up to install my IO-540, and I'm trying to decide
whether to go with the standard push-pull controls or the "cooler" quadrant
option.
I recognize that the push-pull controls have the nice vernier fine
adjustment and anti-creep. On the other hand it's not clear how to rig up
dual engine controls with the push-pull scheme.
I recall Rob Johnson's post on his modified ACS homebuilder quadrant. Do
any of you have a source for practical quadrants that lend themselves to
dual installation?
Should I just forget the dual controls?
