Does anyone operate the choke by reaching in through the bottom of the cowl and manually moving the small lever? I am getting ready to run mine and it really isn't difficult to reach in there and move it. I have a kill switch operated through my receiver so killing the engine remotely won't be a problem. With the choke spring loaded it doesn't seem possible that the choke could vibrate closed. I just don't want to add any unnecessary weight. I think guys at my field do it this way, anyone else?

LOTS OF PEOPLE DO IT THAT AWAY.I RUN 3W BUT STILL DO IT THE SAME WAY.GO FOR WHAT EVER WORKS WITH LEAST AMOUNT OF WORK

I operate the choke manually on both my DA100 and 3W 100. To make it even easier, I attach a 4-40 short rod to a plastic clevis on one end and a 90 degree bend on the other. It hangs down about 1.5 inches and is really easy to grab. Up is open and down is closed - simple. Neither the DA or 3W has closed while running.

I have done like jclittle does many times. Works great.
