Help! Throttle setup question

What is the correct way to setup the throttle linkage from the servo arm to the throttle arm on the carberator. I'm sure it does make a difference to where the linkage is located on the arm itself. This would be on a TOC Yak 37 percent. I don't believe mine is correct and need to know what I should be looking at to insure it's somewhat correct. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tony

Default Re: Throttle setup question

The length of the servo arm and the length of the arm on the carb should be about the same. Then turn on the transmitter and put the throttle stick in the exact middle. The servo arm should be 90 degrees to the push rod. Same thing at the carburetor. With the transmitter stick at the halfway point, the throttle plate should be halfway open and the angle should be 90 degrees. Get this right first, then use the end-point adjust (also called travel adjust) to mkae sure the throttle is fully open and fully closed at both extremes.

. Also you want to set your throws on the throttle servo arm so that the atv is as close to 100% on high and low as possible. This will give you the closest possible resolution between stick movement and carb plate movement. Use your end point adjustment to prevent stalling on either end. You then can set up a throttle curve to refine that if you want
