Title: thumb throttle
Post by: gooberff on July 24, 2022, 04:19:10 PM
I have installed a 3d printed thumb throttle attachment fron Etsy on my City5 and it works OK.  I saw this thumb throttle replacement for the twist throttle on ebay and want to ask if anybody has tried it.  Here is a link to the thumb throttle.

That link is to a dedicated thumb throttle not a 3d printed?  I have the set off ebay. Works fine. Comes with a key fob and battery covers. I like it. The thumb button slightly gets in the way and keeps you from grabbing the whole grip when your not using it but, you can?t have both. I think the covers could be improved if they had a loop molded in to thread a cord or strip of velcro through to hold them on or tie it to keep them from getting lost. Otherwise it?s a decent kit for the money.  :)

I have one got from Amazon link below for my RR6+, works great, takes up less space than the twist and allows you to use standard grips both left and right, so no more 3/4 grip.
