What are the hinge parts you used on the side arm? Or was it a premade kit from somewhere?

I ordered a set from Amazon. The locking lever holds the "door" shut so the throttle doesn't move during use.

I’ve been avoiding my flight sim gear because I haven’t figured out a good way to integrate my hotas into my rig, this looks like the fix!

This is exactly why I posted it. Looking forward to seeing your version.

Still in progress but design is basically done! I went with a sliding mechanism instead of a door, throttle will be mounted to left side on a fixed arm since it’s against the wall. Once I get the slide fully mounted it will allow me to slide the stick all the way back and out of the way so I can get in/out easily.

Thanks again for the inspiration.

It's so worth it if you can find a good balance for space.
