Default Please help!!

Ok........... let me preface this by saying that I appreciate you guys taking the time to respond to this thread.

John.... I believe I have exactly what you are recommending. Perhaps I am just not explaining it very well. You said for me to
"
Attach the pushrod at the servo to the middle hole.
Attach the pushrod at the carb to the hole farthest out.
Set throttle subtrim to %0
Set Hi and Lo endpoints to %100
"
This is exactly where I have the pushrod connected. On the Servo it is the middle hole as you called it, or the Second hole from the Servo as I called it (3 holes on the servo arm). On the Carb I have it connected to what I called the "Lowest" hole or as you call it the "Farthest out".
I did set the Subtrim to 0%, and I do have the Endpoints at 100%. Now, with the linkage setup this way I get the throttle perfectly closed at idle and fully open at full throttle (No over travel) without adjusting the end points.

Build-n- flyer/John..... I will look at step 10 again and see what happens. If memory serves me correctly the Cutoff will only pull the throttle to wherever the Low Travel adjustment is set. So if I set the adjustment to say -80% (Carb partially open in the idle position) then the cutoff switch will not close it and shut the motor down.

I will however look at it again.

Thank you both once again for your time.
