I have a left hand Infinity Aerospace Stick Grip available that I'm not going to use. This retails for $175, I'll let it go for $100. Just to clarify this is stick in left hand / throttle in right, it will not work for a left hand throttle set up. I guess it would technically "work" but it just wouldn't feel "right" See pics.

Btw you'll need to make a spacer to put that on the 3/4 thorp stick. I used a piece of 1" dia 1/8 wall alum tubing. That brings the 1" grib down to the 3/4" stick. |

I thought the stick hole looked a bit big. That's no problem. We have plenty if metal tubing stock to make the spacer. Did u use that momentary switch on the top to actuate the flaps. We bought the actuator u recommended. Also, what would u use those other two buttons on the right for? Maybe to change comm frequencies or the Garmin GPS? |

Go to the Infinity Web page. It has the drawing for the required spacer for our sticks. I had to remove the "blue insulation" from the main wire and solder all the grounds to a common point in order to reduce the number of wires going down the stick and out the bottom. Got this tip from another site ? You can buy the required spacer from Infinity for $15.00. Took me about 15 min. to make mine. When I install electric flaps, I will have one spare switch on the grip. The flap switch is the toggle switch with up/on and mom. down. RB |

Don't forget to offset the grip. If you don't put in the twist/offset your wrist will get mighty tired !  Looking straight down from the top of the grip for the pilots side the PTT trigger will be pointing slightly to the co-pilots side. RB |

Unless the throttle is on the left, FIGHTER style! |
