This handle is 3D printed! Yours looks cool!

There is a version with a slider for throttle control instead of a trigger. The trigger version was developed for carrier pilots in mind.
Here is a video update.

As Pete Mazur pointed out, removing the line bar to take the rest of the handle to the airplane for starting would run afoul of the pull test rules in competition. If you had a complete handle with a detachable transmitter, this issue would be eliminated.
