Switches on the sticks

[bertrand35]

One friend in my club is used to Thobois radios :

Now I convinced him to give a try at our 9x. But there is something he really wanted: the switches on the top of the sticks. It avoids him to search for the switches position for too long when flying ...

Some photos ...

Now the electronics ... He told me that he would reuse the TRN and RUD switches. Any other possibility?

WOW.. WOW .. WOW..

Its fantastic. was it possible to drill the joystick spindle as its so small and do you mind sharing more info on this mod pls ?
What are the part numbers for switches etc ? Sometimes back I tried to so a similar mod but couldn't find small enough switches.

Thank you very much for sharing this.

Right, there is a little visible hole on the sticks. I will ask him for the micro switches parts number, but they are modified - in a <fr>tour</fr> (I don't know its english name).

I think the work you looking for might be "lathe"??

Is there any possibilty to plug the switches to the VOICE board? Martin sent me 2 boards and I have one left that I can give him. I didn't check if there is any free input there ...

Yeah.. you were referring to lathe machine. (french 'tour' - > turning machine / lathe machine)

He has done this job really nice.
