Just wanted to show picture of the Saitek Radio Panel with the RadioShack 1 inch diameter Knobs part # 274-416. I also mounted the Radio Panel off to the right on the Yoke so that I could have better access to the controls.

This is one of the more important items for flight simulation. Essential if you're flying IFR.These units are well built, work well, and are relatively inexpensive. They're light, though.As I mentioned on the review of the autopilot unit, I had to install them into a small wooden box so they wouldn't move around.I'm running them through a really cheap USB hub. It works but a better hub would provide more stable power. Don't cheese on a USB hub.A set of switches and LED displays for use in controlling various aspects of flight simulation functions.
