    Best Interface for Throttles???

    Hey Guys,

    I am looking for a simple USB interface to use with pots in a throttle quadrant. I need only 6 inputs. Anyone have any suggestions?

    no worries captain, you will have to 'adjust' the axis inputs because you'll have 3 throttles on the 727,
    but it was just to give you some idea of what to do.
    you can also use B11 & B12 for trim input if you want.
    good luck and regards from wales......
