Cobra Flight Control Grip
Description
The Cobra Grip was quickly embraced by helicopter manufacturers for the improved switch layout and rapid repairability. The expanded flexibility brought more flight systems and controls to the grip. This proven control grip has been flying for over 30 years.
This grip places up to six switches (shown below right with four pushbuttons, a 4-way actuation switch, and a two-stage trigger) in an ergonomic position for the right hand. Optional configurations are available including a threaded bushing mount and with our transducer and 4-way switches for increased functionality such as cursor control (shown on the left below).
Features
- Two-piece handle design permits rapid field replacement of switches.
- Ergonomic design reduces fatigue and improves response time between functions.
- Complies with all appropriate MIL-Spec tests.
- Qualified by similarity or laboratory testing.
- Two-piece construction, molded from high-strength cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) engineered polymer.
