Fusion ARF (52) and Saito Engine (72/82) ??s
Hey guys. Just about have my Fusion ready to go and I'm at a bit of an impass. Would anyone be so kind as to explain their throttle setup for me? It's really kicking my booty and I can't seem to get the linkage right. I have a Saito 82 with a Hitec HS-85 mounted in the stock location horizontally. Thanks in advance. Pictures much appreciated. Thanks.

I don't have those engines but I have heard that the carbs can be flipped 180 degrees on the Saitos thus moving the linkage to a better location. I did this on my Saito 100 (the only Saito I have) and it worked great.

Thanks a bunch to you both. I had previously flipped the carb, mostly to have the HS needle pointing up. The pictures are basically what i have going on with mine, I just need to figure the linkage. I think I'm on the right track. Thanks again guys.

Got it all up and running. Went with some cable and a ball joint. Worked out great, just a bit tricky. Thanks all!!
