F-16 Flight Control Grip
Description
Designed for the F-16 Falcon, this grip has widened its appeal among manufacturers and is becoming the choice for retrofits and upgrade packages. Equipped with a large 4- way switch, six pushbutton or mini 4-way switches, a trigger, and an autopilot override fingertip lever, the F-16 grip elevated Hands On Throttle-And-Stick (HOTAS) systems to the next level.
This is one of the few grips designed for side-arm control in the cockpit, as compared to between-the-leg controls.
