I totally forget what this thing is called -blanking today- but it happens when you are landing and you press some button and the engines go in reverse to help the plane slow down.  Can someone please remind me on what this is called.  Also what the keyboard key for this control is.  Thanks.

Press and hold down F2  ;D

Thrust Reversers.

Thanks so much, I was going insane, you know what its like when you forget the simplest things and its on the tip of your tongue.  I knew it was something like thrust reversers. I was thinking afterburner, I knew it was wrong but whatever.

The handle poking out from the throttle. pull that back and there you go reverse thrusters intiated.  ;)

Is that a home-built one?  If so, looks nice!

Absolutely and totally cool ALROT!  That rocks!!

I plan to build one...or not...

Depends on how well I can motivate myself....

Also, a throttle quadrant isn't very useful on a single-engine, or a 3M plane (or am I wrong)
