Since June 2024, our painted and hydro-dipped grips are crafted from our durable 3D manufactured Lite grips. This enables us to provide a luxurious looking grip at the same price as our Natural hand crafted wooden grips. Hand crafted wooden versions are still available upon request for an additional fee.
Finish
- Natural Walnut – Each wooden grip is hand crafted with responsibly sourced walnut from fallen trees in the USA. It is finished with a durable and long lasting polyurethane coating.
- Black Gloss – The black gloss finish adds a touch of class to any cockpit. We can accomodate most custom colors upon request. Additional fees may apply. Our painted grips are topped with a durable 2K high gloss clear coat.
- Carbon Fiber Hydro-Dip – Hydro-dipping is the process of immersing the grip in a painted film that strongly resembles carbon fiber weave. Most people cannot tell the difference between actual carbon fiber and the film that we use on our grips. It is topped with a durable 2K high gloss clear coat that is sure to be a show stopper!
- Lite (3D Manufactured) – Our Lite version is designed for those with affordability in mind. It is 3D manufactured from a durable carbon fiber infused nylon. It features a textured finish compared to the smooth finish of our other options. With the standard switch layout, this option saves you $214.
Custom Switch Plate Layouts & Laser Engraving
Engraving aids in identifying the functions of each switch on your grip. It can also be used to add a personal touch to your aircraft by adding custom logos, phrases or registration numbers to your switch plate. This option is an additional $25 for standard switch plate layouts or $45 for custom layouts. The additional $20 for custom layouts covers design work relating to your ideas as well as a custom made wire diagram. Reach out for a custom invoice if you’d like that option.
Trim Switch
- Four Way –Designed for aircraft with a two axis trim system. Ex. pitch and roll or pitch and yaw. This option is included in our standard switch layout pricing.
- Two Way– Designed for aircraft with a single axis trim system. This option saves you $50 off of standard pricing.
- None – Designed for aircraft with no trim system. This option saves you $100 off of standard pricing.
Note: We have options for three axis trim as well. Please notify us if you need this option.
