I would assume that without the help of vision (which I find is helping me
less with every year:), audio cues would be essential. There is instant
feedback as you press any drawbar button.

Also, the user presets (shift + lower drawbar button) would allow up to nine
favorite drawbar positions. Not without its merits.

Not as tactilly satisfyfing as touching drawbars, but some bread crumbs at
least.
