Default SSE Throttle Control Ideas Needed

A lot of you have rotated the engine 90 degrees on you Somethin' Extras. For an OS 2-stroke that means moving the throttle cable to the lower left corner of the firewall when viewed from the front. The control needs to be routed under the tank tray, then up and over the fenolic (spelling) tube that acts as a bearing for the wing tube and back to the servo tray location for the throttle servo.

So, what kind of creative trickery did you use to make for a smooth, untensioned throttle control?

Thanks!
