Very nice, thanks a lot.

Going by the WD number I reackon its a Seaking Co-Pilot Collective grip. Deffo not Pilots due to no Hyd controls.

Most modern helicopters have Speed select levers (SSL) or Engine condition levers controlling the engines, instead of twist grips.

I would say it is almost certainly off a Cyclic and not a Collective. probably P2 bearing in mind the few controls on it.

John not all helicopter have a twist throttle.

I get the idmpression that the round metal plate covers the location for a ‘coolie’ hat type switch.

Would it be collective?, I was under the impression that the collective grip was also a ‘twist’ grip to control engine rpm.

It certainly has American heritage though.

As it’s a collective stick top I’d guess because the collctive is operated with the left hand.

Something for the left handed pilot? Could be a helicopter collective grip.
