Default Tower Hobbies 75 needle valve

I see there are two options for the needle valve on TH 75:

1. remote needle valve as it on tower website
2. needle valve on the carb

What is better and why?
If on the carb is better is it the GMS 76 carb will fit or where do I get one?

I have the remote needle setting and its working so far only did the break in, I need to cut the cowl soon so I'm asking if I shouldn't get the other one instead.

Thanks
Alex

GMS 76 fits

But on the

Tower 75's I've been around you can just take the needle assembly out of the remote body and put it in the carb.

It is the first thing I do with Tower .75's. The only down side to the conversion is that your fingers are closer to the prop just like older engines used to be. The upside is that your needle changes happen much faster, and there is less chance of a air leak (less connections). I not only convert these, but Magnums and Evo's too.
