I spent the day looking over the old solid rod throttle setup that has been badly worn in my 601hd
but it works
I was hoping someone might have the setup for the newer throttle cables I need double throttle controls inside for training whats the hookup look like?
I presently have two of spruces twin cable throttle controls made for the rotax but not sure how to connect both to the throttles levers.nice a clean
