The helicopters recently added to Microsoft Flight Simulator feel very realistic in flight - if you have the proper control hardware! While there's many different throttle levers available for flight simming, a heli pitch lever is hard to come by.

So, I designed and printed a few brackets for attaching the Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle unit to the side of my IKEA "Markus" office chair as a pitch lever for MSFS. And, what can I say - I just love the way this feels now! :-)

The brackets can be printed from any material - I used "tough" PLA for improved stiffness. No special print settings required.

You'll need two M6 screws, length 15-20 mm, to attach the throttle lever to the brackets. If you get hex head screws, you can print the knurled grips for the screws to easily assemble everything without needing any tools
