-====== Compact collective head ======
-===== Summary =====
-This head is perfect for use with motion platforms, as it can be used without counterweight, or even without the pneumatic mod (although I highly recommend the latter!). Also great as a generic gaming device – its shape allows using it as a throttle lever in single-engine airplanes when mounted to the GUNDE chair onto the Malinda mount at 30 degrees. \\ {{http://hc625ma.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/15628064868833158517964134919653-1024x1024.jpg?400 |}}
-===== Components =====
-  * 4 x MTS-123 or MTS-103 switches
-  * 2 x PBS-10B2 buttons
-  * 1 x KY-023 ministick board
-  * 4 x M3x25mm screws and nuts
-  * 1 x Arduino Pro Mini

-===== Assembly guide =====
-. Assemble the lever as described in the single collective manual, up to the point of installing part 2 of the throttle frame. Install the compact head instead of it: \\ {{http://hc625ma.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/15627933669808738192164808220521-1024x1024.jpg?300}}
