Let me know what you guys think of this mod. Personally I find it ultimately more convenient than a Cougar in it's original base. Price is a little high at the moment though. I think Realsimulation are planning on releasing some new stuff for the individual cockpit builder in the near future, wonder how they'll compare price-wise with this one.

Tell you what though, it takes up less space than the Cougar sat in it's original base! Realsimulation also have similar items for sale, but only to companies and not for individual 'hobbyists' for cockpit building. Thing is they could simply be bolted onto the side of a seat and used, then removed and back to normal if a little extra work was done on them. I reckon plenty of people would purchase them given half a chance, and mod them that little extra bit themselves if need be. I just don't understand the manufacturer, they have the opportunity of an outlet for their equipment (make money) and they all but refuse to entertain the idea, even though they've been approached by many individuals - most of which never even received an answer at all.
