Hello All.
This may be of interest to you if your like me with only a fiver and 50 minutes
to spare.
Its a control lock, effective and very simple to make in 50 minutes.
Ingredients. 
Just a length of 5/8 Dowel , Two copper T pieces, the ones with the solder in 
are
slightly longer, you could use one of each as i have.
Couple of pop rivets , bit of Velcro and Yellow tape, touch of Araldite, and a
lick of paint,
( pop in the oven for 50 minutes)

I like mine to push against the seat absolutely no movement, for storage it is
clipped up on the cockpit ceiling  , but you could shorten it with a cap just
beyond the Velcro straps,
I could not remember if the controls are locked in Neutral or Fully down, so i
stuck two Velcro straps on, take you choice what's best  to uses.
Weight  200 grams.

Alan
