    I didn’t make thumb hole on bass flutes. They may be difficult because of their large diameters. Check hole size here iotic.com/flutomat/

    You need to design an 8 or 9-hole flute with Hole 1 as the Pancham hole. I have designed one. Take a look at these measurements in the picture shared below. drive.google.com/file/d/13GgJ-xWHgWOaL0WoBCde_Ol8vaZ39u0S/view?usp=sharing I don't know your flute diameter or thickness. So don't use this as is. But design your own with correct measurements. Note that Hole 1 is your Pancham hole. Hole 5 open is where the Key is. Which is the usual Hindusthani Sa. Also, note that the frequencies are exactly double from 247.5 to 495. That is what we need because your Pancham is 4th down or 5th up, with double the frequency. I have chosen only a 5.7-diameter hole. The bigger the diameter, the farther it would be from the end of the flute, which would be more difficult to handle. So choose a diameter that places Pancham hole at a suitable place for you. This is a difficult task. You may make mistakes. Take it to a professional to do it. If you do it, do it at your own risk.

    Always start with a smaller hole and expand in small increments.

    No hard and fast rules. Depends on which of those two options is easier in a given passage. Typically, when Ma to Pa or Pa to Ma transition does not involve meend or gamak, it is easier to use the regular Pa. Also regular Pa to Dha1 transition is easier than the thumb Pa to Dha1.

    Many keyed wood wind instruments like sax, Oboe, flute have this concept of multiple fingerings for the same note. Player chooses the one that best suits the situation.
