ABSTRACT:
The radio controlled model pilot's station provides realism for the radio controlled modeler in flying his models. The present invention provides a chair having a motorized, rotatable seat to keep the model in view while positioning a throttle quadrant and other aircraft controls in realistic positions easily accessible to the pilot. A resilient pad and releasable clamps incorporated on a moveable radio shelf for quick mounting and removal of the control radio allow interchanging of radios for multiple models or increased battery endurance, while the movable radio shelf allows ingress to and egress from the chair by the pilot without removal of the radio.
