 | The basic physical controls I use consist of Logitech G Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals [1], MOZA AY210 Base [2] and MFY Yoke [3], and V3RNIO+ Flight Sim TPM [4]. |
 | The yoke is mounted with 3D printed adapters (FreeCAD, STEP-front, STEP-rear). Knurled nuts [5] at the front hold the yoke base tightly in position, while allowing the whole thing to be quickly removed when necessary. |
 | The front adapters contain M6x6mm heat inserts [6]... |
 | ...and are attached to the base by removing this screw and replacing it with an M3x16mm one. |
 | An M6x40mm screw [7] goes through the heat insert and the hole in the base's plate. |
 | The back adapters are screwed onto the desktop and guide the base when the front screws are pushed into the slots in the desktop. They also prevent the back of the base to lift up if the yoke is pushed down. The hole for an additional M6 screw was made in case pulling the yoke would move the base, but it turned out that the knurled nuts hold the base tight enough, so this was not used. |
 | Additional controls for aircraft other than the default Cessna are mounted via slots on the sides and front of the seat plate. |
 | Each control has a mounting plate made of 15mm plywood, with two M6x50 countersunk screws [8], 8x6x1mm spacer sleeves [9], 6x20mm washers and M6 star grip nut clamping buttons [10]. The screws go through 5mm holes in the plywood. If applicable, screw-in nuts [11] are added for mounting the control to the plate. |
 | The mounting plate quickly and easily slides onto the seat plate and is held in place by tightening the two grip nuts. |
 | These are the mounting plates for my controls. From left to right: helicopter collective and cyclic, Airbus sidestick (with armrest) and Airbus throttle quadrant. |
 | Airbus throttle quadrant. |
 | Airbus sidestick with armrest padding [12]. |
 | The Airbus and Cessna controls can be mounted simultaneously. When switching to helicopter configuration, the sidestick is replaced with the collective, and the yoke needs to be taken off to make room for the cyclic. |
 | For the Motion4Sim Controller's [13] handheld device I built this little stand, which is placed on top of the TPM with velcro. |
