Boeing 757 Throttle Quadrant

Build Guide

The ultimate printer I can recommend is the Bamboo Labs X1 carbon with AMS if you have deep pockets. ($1200). It's a massive leap forward in 3D printing, with excellent quality and impressive speeds. Its pretty much press print and go as the software and hardware do the calibration before each print. This printer will not manage the larger parts and you are going to need the CREALITY CR10 v3, which is my second choice of printer.

This build was requested by a fellow simmer who couldn't find a decent 757/767 throttle quadrant. I was initially reluctant to take up the challenge due to my high workload. But after working on this design in the background for a few months, this has turned out to be one of my favourite designs and products in the shop.

It's a very easy and simple build. Mainly constructed in modular form which also helps in the build and future maintenance of the unit. Just like the 737 throttle units, this unit features the adjustable brake units on each of the levers to give it the unit some real feel.

The file contains the actual CAD file and all the STL files to print direct. This is designed to fit on a print bed of 220 x 220 mm.

The Fuel cut off switches are fully lit and all the annunciator panels also work.
