Post by: TX-EcoDragon on September 22, 2007, 03:50:16 am
Now, this is looking promising!

Project "Tarmac Aces":  

http://www.valiant-studio.eu/tarmac/index.php

Orders for their KG13 universal base is said to bestarting september 26th.







"perfect Counterpart of the handle equipping Messerschmidt 109, 110 and 262, Focke-Wulf 190 and Heinkel 162.
- Reproduction of the functionalities and movements of the KG13: relaxation, races, safety, gun, radio (FUG16ZY).
- All realizable alternatives on request (A, B and C).
- Completion: exit of factory. The materials employed are designed to patinate slowly with time and the use.
- Attention: this handle is reproduced such as it was assembled in series. The marks of foundry and blows of file are those of the original model!"





Apparently they plan on producing grips for:
F4U Corsair, Curtiss P36/P40/H75, JU87 Stuka, IL2, Yak 3/9, F6F-4, Mustang P51, Lagg 3/5, P47, FW190, ME 109, ME 110, ME 262, JU88, Heinkel 111, DO 335



exact Counterpart of the throttle control equipping the various models with FW190 and TA152 (with the ordering of the lead and overpower)
- easy Integration in a simpit
- Serrated roller of adjustment of the effort of race, identical to the original.



I know you've got one of the coolest sticks ever Gunny, but your FockeWulf of doom pit could accomodate one of these too I think!

Translate the page using altavista.com babelfish. . .it's worth looking at the close up views of the controllers.
