Default B&B Smoke pump / G-38 question

I am up and running! The B&B system is installed and works well.
I used a 16 oz B&B tank for smoke oil, a wheel collar on the line just before the Y connector at the muffler, and mounted the servo and valve to a seperate board and attached it to the inner fuse wall with a couple of screws. It all worked perfect the first time, just as I was hoping for...thanks for the help.
It is too windy to fly today but it sure smokes up the yard!! I used switch 5 to control the smoke servo and then mixed switch 5 to the throttle and set it to work at 85% throttle and over. A click or two on the throttle stick turns the smoke on and off while flying..no messing with switch 5 other than to lock the system out so that the throttle will not operate it.
I'll be anxious to get it in the air...it is now all reassembled and setting in the garage awaiting a bit better weather. If this works as it appears, I'll make up the spray tubes to exhaust the smoke through to complete the illusion.
