The Rig

There’s no point having authentic feeling flight controls if you can’t position them exactly where they need to be. Yet most of us can’t dedicate the space for a home cockpit. Until now! The rig system clamps to an ordinary desk in just a minute or two. Flight controls are attached using a quick release system. Heavy gauge steel but very affordable – it’s just a monitor stand mounted upside down!

Clamp to your desk in seconds - remove just as easily

Protect desk top with the Universal Hub flap

Buy direct from Amazon for typically $30 - $50 depending on the model in your region

Cantilevered arm holds the base of the flight stick where you need it

Add on arms mount higher up for controls on the cockpit sidewall

Quick release plates allow easy switching of aircraft

The standard product photograph you'll find on Amazon for these monitor stands looks like this. The single arm can either be used low down (as in the above pic) to mount a flight stick or higher up to support cockpit side wall controls. Purchase an add on arm so you can do both.

The model in this photo is the MDM11A by British company Allcam yet an almost idental stand can be found in the USA, Germany, other parts of Europe and many other regions. For sourcing links see this page.
