Abstract
A flight control system to regulate an engine throttle and elevator of a model flight vehicle by an operator positioned external to and remote from the vehicle. A linkage mechanism positioned within the flight vehicle provides independent operation of the vehicles' elevator and throttle through a plurality of relatively rotational and linearly translatable levers. Elevator and throttle control cables connect the linkage mechanism to an outboard controller held by the operator. Independent movement of elevator and throttle control rods is achieved through rotation of the controller housing about a particular axis which activates one or both of the control members within the flight vehicle.
