ABSTRACT:
Device for controlling elements of a machine, comprising a stick intended to be actuated by a single hand of an operator and mounted for tilting about at least one axis transversal to said stick, said stick being associated with at least one position sensor and delivering an electric signal representative of tilting of said stick about said axis, on each side of a neutral position, said electric signal controlling at least one actuator which controls at least one of said elements of the machine. This device is characterized in that said stick is mounted for rotation on itself about its longitudinal axis and in that it comprises at least one other position sensor delivering another electric signal representative of rotation of said stick about itself, on each side of a neutral position, said other electric signal controlling at least one other actuator which controls at least one other element of said machine.
