Default RE: Any opinions on M P Jet .061 rc?

Zagnut,

Those prices are pretty much inline with other sources.

Regarding the single needle throttle. Apparently, a lot of modelers were having trouble coping with two needles and Jets were getting a lot of returns so they thought the solution might be a single needle where the idle needle was replaced by a fixed component.

The trick to the Jets throttle is that the two needles are interactive. You have to adjust back and forth till you get the magic settings. Once set, the throttle works very well for a variety of engines as illustrated. It's been tried on Cox, Norvel, VA and several dieselized versions of them all. Works very well in most cases.
