Cyclic Controllers
for Bell 206 type helicopter simulators
The Bell 206 type cyclic has the advantage of being able to place most of the working parts under the seat base, only the stick and grip are exposed. The cyclic controls shown below are meant for dedicated Bell 206 cockpit builders that can install them appropriately under their seat base. The controller needs permanent mounting in a fabricated cockpit structure with Bell 206 scale measurements. The controller will have to be installed in an enclosed seat base to protect the parts and wiring from damage and anchored to the cockpit floor with four screws or bolts.
These cyclic controls can be combined with my collective controller and/or pedals and share a single USB interface. When combined as a set, the USB interface module and each controller are wired with Molex type pin connectors to allow a fast and easy cable connection of each installed component.
