I would like to buy a cyclic stick that I'll build a little something out of. I thought there would be hundreds around from old scrapped helicopters but it is proving very difficult to get hold of. The few I've found are quite expensive.

Preferably I'd like one from a huey or a blackhawk but any kind will do. Anyone got any advices on where to look?

Can do you one from a Hughes 300. They will be expensive as the grip and switches are expensive, eg ptt is $ 800 new :uhoh:
Let me know what you want

Don, that's a very slow way to build your own helicopter! - buying one part at a time! :)

You can get one free with every new helicopter purchased.

Is it essential for it to be genuine? I have a mate who makes simulator parts including the full cyclic and collectives. I am sure you could work out a deal just for the shaft part cheaper than buying a used part.

Thanks guys for the offers and sorry for the very late reply. I needed it for a trophy for one of the ground school teachers at Bristow Academy. I got hold of a computer flight stick in the shape of a Huey cyclic and it turned out nicely :)
