Desktop Pilot TPM Vernier Throttle Box Review

By thecorporatepilotdad

 

Review of the TPM (Throttle, Prop, Mixture) throttle box with vernier control by DeskTop Pilot. Vernier control allows the user to make fine adjustments to the mixture and propeller levers for precise settings, or large adjustments by pressing a button and pulling/pushing the level all the way in or out. This throttle box also contains a throttle friction lock on the throttle, just like a friction lock found on many aircraft with similar engine controls.

 

Desktop Pilot has a 3D printed version available for 349 USD. The metal version and the 3D version are identical except for the materials used for the knobs and buttons in the unit. The metal version is 499 USD at the time this video was made.
