Kevin,
 
I plan to have the following on my stick:
 
1)  Pitch and Rudder trim - China Hat
2)  Push to Talk
3)  Not sure what to put here - flaps maybe?
4)  Speed brakes
5)  Chelton mute (I am using a dual Chelton panel and the Chelton produces aural warnings)
6)  Autopilot disconnect
 
I plan to have the same switches/functions on the Right side.  I plan to have a switch on the panel that selects whether the pilot's or co-pilots stick has control of these functions (except for the Push to Talk).  That way, a passenger (or co-pilot not paying attention) can't activate the flaps, speed brakes, etc.  I purchased a small toggle type switch from Infinity for this purpose.

I have a question for those experienced with the Infinity?Military Style Control Stick Grips.

I need to decide what button/switch?controls what and what type of button/switch.

This is what I have come up with:




1.?Black?China Hat -?Two-Axis (thumb operated) 4-way switch ( N.O. SPST ): Up & down -?Pitch Trim, Right and left -? Rudder Trim

2.?Red?(Index finger operated) Trigger Switch ( N.O. SPDT?: Push-To-Talk (PTT)

3.?Red (thumb operated) Toggle Switch on the thumb side of the China Hat:? [ON]/OFF/[ON] SDPT Toggle Switch: brackets around the word *ON* [ (ON) ] in the Toggle Switch descriptions above means that the toggle switch is momentary in that direction:?Flaps

4)?Black Tactical (thumb operated) Pushbutton half way down the grip (thumb) side :?ON/OFF SPDT?Autopilot Engage/?Disengage

5)?Blue Tactical (pinky finger operated) bottom Pushbutton :?ON/OFF SPDT Pushbutton:?Fuel Pump

6)?Green (thumb operated) Tactical Pushbutton on knuckle side of the China Hat:?[ON]/OFF/[ON] SDPT Toggle Switch: brackets around the word *ON* [ (ON) ] in the Toggle Switch descriptions above means that the toggle switch is momentary in that direction:?Speed Brakes

What would be nice somewhere is a button to switch preprogramed radio frequencies, I could replace the Fuel Pump with that?

Ohh, and what to do about the?passenger stick? I will be having?dual Rudder/Break Pedals I guess I should do the same there?


Thanks Much
