Yes, the Beechhurst stuff looks nice, but their prices curl my hair!

Keith,
=20
I installed dual throttle quadrants in my Elite LWFG. I got them from =
Beechhurst Industries (http://www.beechhurst.com/Quads_Recip.shtml=20
=20
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=3D4291366131
(you have to join - it's free).
=20
I just started flying (got 16 hours on my plane) and love it.

=20
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. =20
=20
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.
=20
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?
=20
Should I just forget the dual controls? =20
