The fuel lines look good, the tank and them have never been used.

So I was testing out the throttle movement and the rod was stuck in the tubing. I was able to pull it out with plyers but it's all gued up. I cleaned the rod and the tube using some gue gone as best I could so that I could move it. How easily should it move or is that impossible to describe? I wanted to order more tubing and more rods but I was not sure the sizes. The tube is securily in the plane so if I have to replace it, I'll have to brake the wood which would suck. I was thinking there must be some sort of grease I could put in the tube to help the metal slide?The tubing does have a slight curve which causes the rod to rub up against the tube.


These were my best guesses on sizes and I attached a picture of the throttle rod and black tubing it I currently have.

All the batteries seem to be working but I'll take your suggestions and buy new batteries.

The good news is, I was able to find someone that I actually work with that has this hobby, he has several planes and it sounds like he would be willing to help me and I can stop bombarding you guys with questions. Peace!
