Which kind of filler did you use?
It’s just a no-name two component filler from an autoparts store. Get a cheap one that says “light”, “fine”, “sands easy” or something similar.

Well I haven’t received it in my non-destructive and destructive test center yet
Thanks Troll. Are there companies that will print these for me, or do I need to find someone with a 3D printer? Thanks.
There are companies like shapeways.com that will print for you. I used them before I got my own printer.
Thank you sooo much!! Hopefully in 1-2 weeks I’ll get the screws and plungers and get to try it out.
Any recommended print settings?
I printed the arc and lock parts on their sides and increased the fill to 25% and increased the wall thickness a bit.
Your sound design is so satisfying
I knew you’d like it!
Any chance I can request a 50% throttle stop for space Sims I’m using my throttle as forward/reverse
That last video shows you one
Oh, and welcome to Mudspike!
Awesome! Is this the final version? Or are you still tweaking the design?
It should be the final version. Unless you can come up with a good idea that I should implement…
I will post the files tomorrow.
@troll Edit: i saw that you can order it from shapeways, can you also link what screws and parts to buy as well
Idea to implement? Hhhmmm… A challenge… challenge… Hhhmmm… Ahhh! How about a selfcentering version?
I am not going to get a Virpil throttle, but I am looking into adapting your very elegant idle stop and AB detent solutions to my Saitek/Logitech throttle quadrant Right hand Warthogesque Dual throttle project.
Selfcentering I would adapt to a CH throttle quadrant for Forklifttruck controls. My current solution is rubbish. It’s very flimsy, cannot use the full range of movement and requires a fairly large deadzone.
Happy Simming
Hey man any chance you’ll drop those cad files soon?
I will. Just need to get back home to my computer. Had to prioritize the weekend a bit.
