Brief Description:  Forward Throttle Mounting

Here is where I mounted the forward throttle. I have made a few modifications to the throttle controls.

* I created a back plate of 1/4" aluminum that the throttle mounts to. This allows the throttle to be removed for maintenance.The back plate is riveted to the fuselage side (the rivets are hidden from view), but the throttle lever itself is mounted to a thinner sheet of aluminum that is screwed to the back plate.

* I added a friction lock to the throttle. The small round disc (about 1" diameter) just inside the nylok is used to increase or decrease friction on the control. Hopefully this will take care of any "throttle creep" that might show up in operation.
