Out of curiosity, why does it need to be an OEM TQ?

Have you contacted Nick at APHS and asked if he can source one?

Fyi- i regularly speak with Nick and TQs are about the rarest of items right now.  Just nothing available.

No worries, I just want that real feel. Yeah I've contacted Nick a few times and nothing.

Nick couldn't get a 747-400 throttle quad if his life depended on it yet most 747-400 builders have one. Not the most reliable source for parts, so I would take that with a grain of salt.
No offense intended just "RARE" facts  ;D

Offence taken Gary......Nick is a friend so I would appreciate if you keep comments like that to yourself or your own personal experience Gary.   In addition we were talking about a 737 TQ, not 747.  He has been able to get me most of what I needed for my build and many others over the years.

Looks like I might have to go with a cockpit for you throttle. This is looking to be like a unicorn!

kurt-olsson

Build the rest of the cockpit first and look another year at least. It will be worth it.

Steenos

Kurt you are so wise. Thank you! Haha. It's easy to get impatient.

At this point i'd take a Cockpitforyou v3 Gold TQ.

if you are buying the real tq    are you getting the "other" vits thst go with it   or just the housing and TQ levers

Steenos

I didn't buy a real one. This is a replica but 100% metal and from a company called FSC.it. From what the guys here said though you should make sure it comes with everything if you want to convert it to sim use

Steenos

So My throttle quadrant purchase on ebay went south. I ended up having to send it back because it wasn't what I wanted. Let me know if there's anything out there. I'm not finding anything.

It took me over two years to find one and it was not on this site either!

Has anyone purchased the FSC TQ ?

If so, what's the product like and what's the company like to deal with ?

Thanks

It is interesting to note that on their web site add for this TQ, they don't mention that the throttle levers are motorized. Perhaps an oversight on their part.
And if they are, is each engine on a separate motor?
Is the thrust reverse a full on and full off or graduated?
Are the faceplate's back lit for night operation?
Are the trim wheel full size?

Just things missing in the add but I would hope are there.

Justin,

Contact UAM, if you really want a real one, but it'll cost you...pretty much the only way of getting one beyond after market types.

Good Luck,

John
