It seems like quite a few people have the Tosten grips in their -10's.
Can anyone flying with one of these grips, address whether the forward sweep on
the grip is an issue as far as panel interference goes?
With that forward sweep, clearly, you get less forward distance until hitting the
panel. I'm just not sure if that is a practical concern at all when everything
is finally rigged and tested.
Thanks!
Jae

I've trial fitted it and found that the stick has to be modified in some
way to clear the panel. I bent mine in a press. Others have re-welded it.
I'm not sure if any of the stick tops or any of the alternate panel
setups end up without requiring some mod of the stick.

Jae, if you zoom in on the pic attached, you will see what I did to make th
em clear the panel... they go right under and clear by at least .050".....N
ot that I will ever need to push the stick that far forward.- I might hav
e slightly modified the connection on the bottom... just can't remember.-
- But they work fine, no issues.

Foreflight just released their high definition, Ipad compatible version, and it
looks like it has approach plates. It's a free update too.

Jae,
I have the CH, now Tosten grips. They work fine and mine just brush the
switches and CB's on the panel at full forward. I cut the sticks a low as
they would go to install the grips. FWIW, nothing against them but on my
next aircraft I'm using the Infinity grips and modify the stick to allow
them to not hit the panel. Reason? They just feel nicer to me and the
switches have a more tactile feel and are less apt to be inadvertently
actuated, my 2 cents as always,
