General Aviation Control Panel, GA300 Series
General Aviation Control Panel, GA300 Series
You don't have to spend a fortune to get realistic controls for your flight sim experience! Our new economy GA300 series General Aviation Control Panels give you the same controls as our more expensive products, but in a bare minimum package.
Depending on which model you choose, you get a Throttle control with approximately 70mm of travel that includes an adjustable tension knob.
A model with a vernier throttle is also available, having a 60mm range of motion, and push-pull AND vernier function.
The Pitch and Mixture controls are just like the real thing, with push-pull AND vernier controls. With approximately 60 mm of travel, rotate the knob for fine adjustment, or push in the button and push/pull the knob for coarse adjustment.
The Carb Heat model (Anti Ice in MSFS 2020) has both analog AND digital control. For those sims that only allow digital (push button) control, like MSFS 2020, you can disable the analog function and just use the buttons at the end of travel. For other sims that do allow analog control, like X-Plane, you can disable the digital function on just use analog. The control has a 50mm range of motion.
The chassis has been updated so that it now includes the same desk mount bracket as our FCP controls to mount this unit to your desk/table. You can also purchase an optional desk mount clamp for easy setup/removal.
This item can also be used with a bezel (GA300BEZEL, sold separately) for easy mounting to a control panel. The bezel comes with screws to attach it to the GA300 unit.
The unit comes with a 10 foot USB cable, and is plug & play. Just plug it in, calibrate it for your first use, then assign your controls in the sim of your choice. It will show up in your USB controls as a HID Joystick controller labeled Gear-Falcon GA301TPM, GA302VTMP, or GA303CTM.

DISCLAIMER
I can't believe I have to put this in here, but please be aware that the only approved method to mount your GA200/GA300 series controller is by using the included mounting bracket, or the optional mounting bezel. Damaging the shell/chassis by mounting with tape, holes/screws, and especially, squeezing the unit between the jaws of a clamp, will immediately void your warranty!

I must echo the others, this TPM ROCKS! Build quality is great, simple to install and configure, feels great in my hand—just like the real thing! And the price? Listen, I can afford the other brands, but why would you? Don’t be fooled by the dollar amount—you’re getting a very solid, very accurately representative product for an extremely good, no GREAT price! I also purchased two trim wheels with this order, one each for elevator and rudder trim—and they work exceptionally as well! The added control board to each is an additional jewel to new (and old) cockpit/sim builders—so simple to add buttons, switches—just like they say, “configure your way!” Very quick delivery from the minute I smashed the purchase button as well. Wonderful, professional customer service (which is very much lacking these days), I can’t say enough good things about this experience. Thank you and very well-done Gear Falcon, I’ll be back for more!
I agree with the previous reviewer, who mounted his GA301TPM beneath his Honeycomb Alpha throttle quadrant. I did the same with mine (using double-lock fasteners), and now my teenage daughter has a very realistic setup for both G.A. and Commercial aircraft. The other vernier-controlled TPMs I had seen were all at least twice the price of the Gear-Falcon model, and the quality is excellent.
I was looking for a good TPM controller as I have the Honeycomb Bravo which is not "ideal" for learning to fly a Cessna.
This fits right under the Bravo perfectly and allows me to now fly Cessnas as intended.
I chose this over any others due to the True Vernier control.
Being able to lock ther throttle and have the Vernier control like a real plane is Amazing!
