Control wheel

This aeronautical control wheel features a small digital panel on its front side that connects to the engine control unit. Four LED lights indicate proper functioning (green) or system failures (red), such as engine fire or parachute activation. The upper side has four push-switches, with the right bottom switch controlling power engine (gas increase when pushed, decrease when "open). The left bottom switch activates main parachute release while the upper switch engages the backup parachute. Internal short wings on either side provide a firm grip and facilitate thumb activation of the upper switches for quick response.
