It was just an idea that some of the flight modes would require a different type of control set. This means the abandonment of one of the flight controls over another.
Or else I inhaled so much smoke from the shop that it seemed like a good idea at the time. I now realize that I want a different layout with more visibility, so I'll draw a more sensible configuration later.

Stingy, now that I know what this is for I want to just say that since its sci-fi anything goes within a bit of reason, so you are allowed to take a lot of creative liberties. BUt if you want real technical accuracy I strongly suggest following those specs in Hillberg's post.

LOL love it because I've played Transarctica before, and if "Transequestria" has the kind of action seen in your artwork then it would be a huge improvement. The action in the former was tedious to nonexistent and drove me to boredom several times.
Oops, forgot about this one... this one was part of my coming out post on FB. Note the two signatures... some added symbolism to what's already depicted.
