MustangSally Posted October 19, 2021 Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) Mounted my newly arrived collective to the Taurus using the WW mounts. Pretty easy.....removed throttle gear from Taurus case then bolted the WW chair mount to the bottom of the case. Doing it this way allowed me not bother with the collective extension. I also greased the friction dampers with some Nyogel grease.

Simm0 Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 How do you find the reach to the throttle when mounted like this? Does it make it uncomfortable when flying jets?

Dudikoff Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 Looks quite practical. Do you have some photos from below to see how it's mounted? Did you like make holes in the bottom panel of the throttle? i386DX40@42 MHz w/i387 CP, 4 MB RAM (8*512 kB), Trident 8900C 1 MB w/16-bit RAMDAC ISA, Quantum 340 MB UDMA33, SB 16, DOS 6.22 w/QEMM + Win3.11CE, Quickshot 1btn 2axis, Numpad as hat. 2 FPH on a good day, 1 FPH avg.

Once the target sum is reached, I'll be off to somewhere nice I promise not to post from. I'd buy that for a dollar!

Bolted it on and mounted the channel with case nuts parallel to the Taurus. I also have a small stand under the Taurus for support.
