Default RE: Gas engine vibrations and throttle servos

Y'all don't want to get that servo too close to the engine, or else you are going to get ignition pulses induced back into your receivers circuitry. It's always a good idea to mount the throttle servo well in back of the firewall, and connect it to your Carb with a non conductive pushrod. You can get away with it some of the time, but not all of the time. There is nothing difficult about using proper bellcranks to do the job of linking the servo to the Carb. Do it right.
