Parking Brake Mod for the TM TCA Quadrant - DIY

For every serious flight sim enthusiast, every bit of realism counts for enhanced immersion.
This mod imitates the operation of the real A320 Parking Brake lever by adding a lock system and requiring a lift of the lever to unlock it before it can be turned to either the arm or disarm positions.

Santi, thanks for your work! Fantastic ideas to improve this TCA boxes... They do need these improvements for sure!

[@santiagoluib3]

Thanks Aldo, Sir!

[@boshaama949]

Well done Santi ! Amazing mods and done to perfection :)

[@santiagoluib3]

Thank you Saad sir! :)

[@garywaldron7773]

awesome mods you have here sir, but are you going to do a Flaps mod aswell, im holding off before ordering to see if you do that so i can just order a whole set and only pay for postage once, Cheers Gary

[@santiagoluib3]

Hi Gary. I don't make a Flap mod because there is already a very good mod for the TM TCA flaps in cults3d-dot-com. Just search for TIMONHUG or A320 Flaps at cults3d :) I bought a copy and it is amazing!

[@santiagoluib3]

On second thoughts, I just made a mod for the Flaps I can call my own :D The detents are hidden inside the enclosure, but the lift-unlock travel is much smoother and more realistic ;)

How to remove the switch caps? The black parking brake piece?

Do you sell the psychical copies now or do I need a 3d printer still?

[@santiagoluib3]

Hi, physical kits are now available at the store :)

@@santiagoluib3thank you :)

[@reinhardkummer6394]

Why not shipping to Germany possible ? Can I by the Files for 3 D Printer ??

[@santiagoluib3]

Hi Reinhard, It should be OK now. You may try again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[@reinhardkummer6394]

@@santiagoluib3 thanks. But the cost for shipping are very high to germany. Possible download the Files for the 3d Printer-I pay for it.

[@santiagoluib3]

Hi @@reinhardkummer6394 , Is it possible that you can ask friends who are interested with the product, and together your orders will be in one shipping? This is how some people from Germany do. Today I just shipped a parcel to Germany for three people in one shipping - so they share one shipping cost. I am so sorry, but for some legitimate reasons I cannot sell the files (not yet). Previous experience weren't so good with my other products owing to making the files available.

[@reinhardkummer6394]

@@santiagoluib3 Yes, of course that's not so good if the files are misused. But believe me, I would only use the files for my TCA and certainly wouldn't want to do any business with them. So, think about it. I can also talk to you by email.

[@appeplays]

Any mod for the flap lever yet?

[@santiagoluib3]

Hi @appeplays, I did not make a Flap lever mod as there is already a very good mod for the TM TCA Quadrant at Cults3D. Just search 'A320 Flap' and you should find it easily. I bought it and it's amazing :)

[@appeplays]

Ok thanks for letting me know I'll check that out plus loving the mods that you make, I'm probably going to buy the thrust lever mod because the standard detents are horrible.

[@cwbalmer]

Oh no.. something else I need!! Ordering now!!! :-)

[@honkfrohn4493]

Hi - Have a look @ *bay germany - "Funktionaller A320 Flap Lever" - fits perfect ....🤓

[@santiagoluib3]

On second thoughts, I have just developed my own Flap mod for the TM TCA. Almost done, coming soon ! :)
