Tres ghetto, for sure, but isn't it great to have stuff where it should be? ;D
My 'pit will have a stick, but I want to build a removable yoke eventually... it's just weird flying models of yoke-equpped aircraft with a stick.

I have a force feedback stick that I extended (not shown) I use for stick and rudder airplanes....

( when I say extended I mean just the handle ) I didn't move the buttons up with it. not enough patience for that yet.
