Anyone come up with a clever way to add a cruise/climb switch to the stick of an ASW27?

Thanks,

Matt, nobody I know does manual cruise/climb anymore. Except for the really ancient varios, most today employ an airspeed trigger for going to cruise, set it to 65 knots and forget it.


sometimes I like to "taste" the air when cruising before turning...


Matt,

If you have an S80 use the taster function and a momentary button similar to a push to talk switch for Climb/Cruise. Every time you push the button it changes to the other mode.
