Im hoping I can find some help...

I have a repro MP control panel and I am in need of the mounting hardware for the flight stick, spinner and cp mounting hardware to cab.

Unfortunately I haven't found a parts manual to know the size of all the required hardware.

Can anyone assist?
 
i took my cp and parts to fastenal and got the hardware i needed. i dont remember the sizes off the top of my head, but the carriage bolts were smaller than what they have at lowes/home depot/ace hardware
 
I just finished assembling/wiring a Mad Planets control panel.

Spinner: The ones for the spinner are 10x24 carriage bolts. They either need to be 3.5" long for a Wico spinner, or I believe it was 3/8" long I think for a modified Tempest spinner fitting.

Here's a link to a company that had these.

Control panel: found some at Lowe's. I don't have the size offhand.
Flightstick: Mine had some already. Maybe I could remove one and figure the measurement if need be.
 
K, I think I got it all. I had a bunch of tumbled carraige bolts in a bag I cleaned up a while back just for times like this. Completely forgot I had them.

They worked out fine, and I think I have most the wiring right.

Where do the two wires for the fire button connect to, and there is also a blue wire, where does that connect to?

The blue wire (fire button) should connect back to the CP molex. The position is in the wiring schematic. From memory, I think it goes to position 8 on the molex. But check that to make certain.

The green wire can be connected to any ground on the joystick leaf switches.
