Mason Control Grips, Throttles, HaWC Controllers, Communications Interfaces

Mason Controls

MASON control grip The Mason controls team at Esterline Control Systems offers world-class control devices and subsystems — such as control grips, throttles, HaWC controllers, and communications interfaces — for today’s advanced cockpits, military vehicles, and other specialized applications. Our solutions fall into two broad categories: control products and communication products.

Most Mason grips, throttles, controllers, and other products are custom designs created to satisfy a particular customer need. Our standard configurations serve primarily as a starting point.

Our controls and communications interfaces stand out from the competition with thoroughly engineered designs, integrating human factors, embedded software, environmental ruggedness, and more.
