Hi, does anyone have a photo, diagram or picture of a Mohawk instrument panel, preferably an OV-1C with the round engine gauges, that lists or labels the instruments. I’m trying to put one together but am having trouble identifying what I actually need.
Regards Paul.

Lots of holes to fill there, Ozjag. Looks very complete though. Another fairly cheap information option here: http://www.flight-manuals-on-cd.com/OV1.htm

Hi Ian, nice grip, here’s a photo of my one. It has no buttons or trim switch. Also this is a photo of the panel I will be trying to fix up.
I may have to email the US Army Museum if I can’t find the info elsewhere.

Maybe email the US Army Aviation Museum at Fort Rucker?

Usually ‘Otto Push Switches’ on US aircraft grips. These are the wrong colour but should fit, for considerably less cash:

Mohawk grips are a pleasing shape. I’m not sure which model this one’s from but not a Viper from Battlestar Galactica though.

Hi Ian, yes the 134 prefix kinda gives it away. I’ve already got a control column from a prototype aircraft without all of the buttons, although nice I can’t afford it at the moment just for the buttons.
lanc35, thanks for the link, I haven’t seen that before, it is useful but I really need a OV-1C version as it is a different layout.

Is this any use to your project? Not Skycrane, very much Mohawk: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201252819094?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Google books has the OV-1D manual.
This link should take to what seems to be a relevant page..
