Hi Everyone,
The idea is about how to use the space indicated with the red arrow on the photo of the the TCA Boeing Throttle quadrant, to introduce some servo mechanism driven by Arduino to move the lever up and down the open slot based on event triggers from the flight simulator sending back where the lever should be during autopilot AT setting.

@mesmak Are you sure a servo could overcome the friction? ALso, isn't there a detent to overcome?
