That’s a more recent project. The box and panels are DIY but the controllers are from Thrustmaster and VirtualFly. Here’s a better shot:
The throttle quadrant is interchangeable, so here it is with just a single pair of thrust levers:
And in the image I posted above, I’ve mounted my VirtualFly TQ6 in the space where the Thrustmaster TQ is in that photo. They swap out like modules. The flap lever and spoiler lever are also Thrustmaster parts and one Thrustmaster TQ has to be connected for them to work, so when I’m using the VirtualFly TQ6 for piston or turboprops I just drop the Thrustmaster TQ into the body of the pedestal where it can’t be seen, and change the controller profile to deactivate the thrust levers etc.
The iPad Mini you can see in its ‘dock’ is there to put Air Manager panels etc on, but also I can unplug it and use it as a scratchpad for Foreflight etc.
However… despite all the work I put into this, I really don’t like it. It’s very compromised in terms of design and build. In particular, it’s very not-square which means various parts are uneven (you can see this if you look closely) and I made it using a base frame (which was itself a mistake) and I had to use much thicker wood for that than I planned due to supply issues and so it’s super-heavy… far too heavy.
So I’m rebuilding it from scratch right now, and incorporating the lessons learned to make it better this time around. Here’s current progress:
Should be done in a few weeks. Meantime I can fly with the current one. I’ll post some pictures when it’s done… again.
