If your not sure which way round the throttle is going to go please make sure you have someone hold on tightly to your plane when you start it, as you may get a suprise!!
Heh. I'm sure now thanks to the helpful people on this forum. But, of course, I have tie-downs I'd use anyhow if doing it alone.

Again, the whole point of the thread was to make sure I didn't get a surprise by setting it up correctly in the first place and making sure I didn't flood the engine trying to start her up the first time. I'm still waiting for my optical kill before I try, which should provide yet another safety net.
