Cheap and easy heli control setup. Went to my local Guitar Center and grabbed a cheap foldable music stand and a portable guitar stand. The music stand supports my keyboard on either side, and I made a base for the Thrustmaster throttle out of an old Pergo flooring remnant and secured it to the stand with small copper pipe clamps ( the foam block cushions it from tearing up my leg). The 5 lb. weight keeps it from wandering while in use. Obviously not a true collective, but the orientation gives me the feeling of up/down movement and unplugs for storage instantly.
