THE PROJECT

The project

As a private helicopter Pilot, i used to fly on PC Simulators using standard joysticks and accessories,

which never provided accuracy and realistic flight feelings.
So i started to look for Helicopter-specific accessories. What i found was either lowcost produced

and not precise, or was much over my budget, starting from 2000 USD for Pitch, Collective and Pedals.

I so decided to create it myself with the following requirements:

accuracy - adjustable collective, long arms
accuracy - high quality pedals, high response
Design - transportable, small volume for easy stocking
Design - easy concept, longlife pieces, neutral colors
Design - everything should be adjustable without screwdriver
technic - plug and play, USB, programmable buttons
technic - 8 way hat switch for headview settings
technic - fully mecanical production for precision
technic - as similar as possible to real heli controls
technic - based on Agusta Bell Jet Ranger 206 turbine helicopter

The conditions were set. I started to think about which way would be the best;

the immediate consequence was sleepless nights ;-) ;-)

The project then went through material-testing, prodution of prototypes, testing phase through sim gamers, corrections, production of prototypes, testing phase through reallife pilots, etc etc etc... till the day we could look at it and say: Wow, this product is great! And it looked so great that i soon received some friend requests for "additional production". So we decided to produce it in small series.

Use these controls and it will take your simulation software to a new level!
