One thing that puzzles me here (and has done in the past)... WHY are the throttles placed in the ceiling, essentially unreachable if you're already in the middle of sorting out an emergency that needs hands on the collective and cyclic? It would make me horribly uncomfortable if I couldn't control the engines at the same time as everything else. The "motorcycle" throttle on the collective just seems such an obviously good idea. I can see a practical problem for a twin (like, needing two throttles) but I'm sure that's not beyond the imagination of man.
