How do you guys mount your throttle to the carb arm on a DA 170????
The hole in the arm is very big. I think when Da shiped it they had a tapered spacer (as found with a ball link set)
they fliped it over and put the cone in the large hole, This takes up the difference but allows the whole assembly to pivot on the arm...
I guess that would work but does not seem like the best answer. Also I would like to put the linkage on the inside of the arm (close to the engine) This is due to location of throttle servo in exsiting airframe. So I need to come up with a low profile way to mount it so I have clearence between the arm and the carb.
Any help and pictures would be great
