Sledge throttle location
Guys
I would like to see some pictures of how you installed the throttle servo and linkage if you have any. Did anyone install it near the engine like on the Extreme 330?

I did mine just like the plans called for. Mounted in the center rib of the wing with the push rod going out the front of the wing. This set up works great. Tom

I buried mine into the fusedlage between the engine mounts and cut a tunnel for the wire. It works fine I will send a pic later when i get back to my computer.

Bobby, 3Dreaming and krazy RC have it right. Though there are many different ways you could rig this, I recommend staying with the instruction manual. It is a tried and true method. Just add two small 1/4" sq. harwood rails in the cutout that is in that center rib and run a 2-56 rod out the front of the wing. Jeff W.
