I had to refit the left console to make the Throttle Quad lay flush. The problem here is that the Vans prepunched holes, are in the wrong place. Do yourself a favor and check this out before you attach the control cables... You will need to redrill the nutplates in the side plate of the console , the cable pass through holes in the gearbox, and the two nutplates in the F804C Channel. *Thanks to Jim for this heads up!
