Because, covers like this are just plain cool.

An unexpensive solution is creating home made ones. I made ones myself. They're simply squared bags made of cloth:

These are the measures:

 

- Joystick: 33.5cm x 19.5cm

- Throttle: 40cm x 28cm

 

Both have a rope at the end so you can tighten it around the base of the joy/throttle to avoid dust entering in.

Hope this will help pilotfly.gif

Hi Gothicghost,

I bought dust covers some time ago and wrote a thread about it. I guess this guy is still in business.

Have a look here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=188672

The "Remove before flight" hanger can be bought there or simply watch out at ebay, got two for 1,50 EUR incl shipment when I remember right.

I hope this helps and yes, they are plain cool and I´m always happy when I see them ;)

 

 

P.S.: Just see that the original post is from 2013, my bad.

My Covers

 

Hi, I use inexpensive appliance covers from Amazon. A can opener cover for the Stick :

A Toaster cover for the throttle: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A8VMHF2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
