These guys are more expensive but their gear is all metal and very reliable, customizable length and grip and very nice feel overall. On the Throttle quadrant you can place your palm on each of the 3 of the levers with ease. The middle ones I use as trims by placing my whole palm over them. This is my main Throttle, Prop Pitch, trimmers and Flaps controller.

I have been using 7 of their controllers including the GG-TQ6 throttle quadrant for 7 years now.
Just so you have a more complete picture of what is available
The only problem I have with the CH throttle quadrant is that the travel of the levers is kind of short and you need two fingers to operate each lever. Otherwise they are accurate, sturdy and as you know, very programmable.
The Saitek is also accurate, it has a longer travel than the CH, the feel is good, better grip and the price is great. It is plastic like the CH but not flimsy by any means.
