# Sidebase Configuration Options for Cockpit Builder
Wednesday, 31 August 2022
Our cockpits are very modular and we have different options for the sidebase.
Sidestick handle
Bellow
Tiller
**The sidestick mechanism is available in two versions:**
Original-like high-quality mechanism with oil damping.
This mechanism is intended for the demanding pilot. It can hardly be distinguished from the original.
High-quality robust mechanism with suspension
This mechanism is intended for the hobby pilot who wants to feel the typical sensation of a heavy aircraft also in the sidestick.
Picture wil be added soon.
**We also offer the sidebase in two versions:**
Premium Version
This version has many realistic details and supports with its design the perception of a real cockpit. It is made of fibreglass and the leather structure of the top is simulated in great detail. A high quality paint finish prevents abrasion.
Cockpit Builder Version
This is a simplified version. It is basically built in the same way as the Premium version, but omits some details and is thus cheaper to produce.
**You will find the products in our shop:**
[Cockpit Builder - Flight Controls](https://vier-im-pott.com/en/cockpit-builder/shop/category/flight-controls "Flight Controls") (english)
[Cockpit Builder - Stucture](https://vier-im-pott.com/en/cockpit-builder/shop/category/cockpit-structure "Cockpit Structure") (english)
All versions can be combined as desired. On request, we can also assemble the sidebase completely for you.
