Hello Empire,

Striking back : There is nothing assigned to this knob. What do you think its use could be (except locking the position of the levers) ?

Regards,
Luc

I have seen them use a very similar setup on "Whale Wars". They manually operate this knob that is on the back of the throttle control assembly. They seem to be adjusting or trimming some component of the propulsion system (pitch?). Very curious what this is.
