![]() The Bravo comes in attractive packaging, which is easily on a par with Apple products. If the metal clamps are used in conjunction with the suction cup, it makes the Bravo sit rock-solid to the desk, which is great for mounting it permanently in one place.Ī robust dual-mounting solution will keep the Bravo in its place with 40lb of tensile strength. I found that as long as I attached it to a clean and smooth surface, the unit stayed firmly in place. The mounting plate can, however, be separated from the base and cleaned with soapy water to regenerate the tensile strength or stickiness to its original form. Word of caution: any dust particles may compromise the seal and can cause the suction cup to break free, so you need to be sure the surface is clean. The suction cup fixes the throttle quadrant to a desktop with a tensile strength of 40lb to hold it securely in place. The second is a sizeable micro-suction cup, which is attached to a removable mounting plate on the base of the throttle quadrant. Firstly, there are two metal clamps that can be used to secure the throttle quadrant to a desktop. The Bravo is equipped with a dual-mounting kit, which has been adapted from the Alpha Flight Controls. The trim wheel and undercarriage lever can also be seen in this shot. Finally, an annunciator panel with 14 warning lights displays the status of critical systems such as master warning/caution, engine fire, vacuum, fuel, hydraulics, oil pressure and so on.Īdditional features include a general aviation autopilot, annunciator lights and a switch panel. Below the autopilot, there are seven programmable two-way switches which can be assigned to operating the aircraft’s systems such as pitot heat, external lights, fuel pump or cowl flaps to name a few. ![]() A five-way selector switch is used for jumping between different modes while a rotary knob dials in the settings such as desired heading or altitude. The Bravo is also equipped with a general aviation type autopilot with backlit buttons, which can be used for selecting various modes such as heading, altitude, vertical speed and approach, etc. Additional features include an undercarriage handle with green/red lights to indicate the status of the landing gear and a GA-style elevator trim wheel. There is also a two-way GA-type flap switch so it is possible to use either the flap lever for flying airliners, or for general aviation we can use the two-way flap switch. A friction knob sets the ‘stiffness’ of the axis, which works smoothly and seamlessly. Additional Features on the BravoĪpart from the actual throttle levers, the Bravo comes with plenty of additional features. Due to how 3D printing with filaments work, layer lines are visible.The Bravo is made to be highly configurable and can be set up to replicate the controls found in any number of aircraft types, including four-engine airliners. Because of this production process, it may show some very minor optical imperfections. The actual Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant is NOT included! * This is a 3D printed product and assembled by hand with the highest attention to detail. Please note, this set only contains the 2 white throttle handles. Also make sure to check out our Checklist holder for the Honeycomb Alpha Yoke.A nice addition to the Thrust reverser handle set!.These handles only work for aircraft with 2 engines since they are too big to fit the other 2 levers.It takes about 2 minutes to replace the original throttle handles and this kit uses the standard screws.Comes as a set of 2 with inlaid 3D printed black numbering 1 & 2. ![]() The design is closely inspired by the Boeing 737.Make those Microsoft Flight Simulator, X-Plane or P3D flights more immersive! The original Honeycomb handles are relatively small, and this replacement set has a much more realistic scale. A set of 3D printed throttle handles for the Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant.
