Got a link? I've thought about doing the desk thing, I've seen them where you can make the whole throttle and stick flip under the desk and it remains plugged in. That would be nice because I unplug both every time I'm done for the week. I have an el cheapo desk, so not sure how well it would work.

Ya that can/will wear out cables/connectors, for sure.

This is the link for the under the desk mount I use...like I said, for the throttle you will only be able to screw in the front because the throttle base is huge, if you go with STECs. I've flown two scenarios and couple FSOs and it has held up no problems. Also the dual throttle sure comes in handy for the 38, especially when trying to rope a dope  :rofl :salute

I used my Warthog stick mount for my Virpil throttle. Just stuck it on with some 3M VBH double sided a year and a half ago and it hasn't budged.

Here we put salt on Margaritas, not sidewalks.

Thats what I’m looking for. Except I want them mounted to a single board with a piano hinge so they and KB flip under and hang 180 degrees. instead of clamps actually mounted.

I  now see I can just have a Z shaped plate made at a local steel shop for a few dollars.
