Throttle Servo Setup
Our preferred choice of throttle servo is a mini metal gear digital servo. It offers compact
footprint, light weight, good holding power and, most importantly, accurate movement to always
assure the most precise throttle setting.
Depending on the engine brand the engine throttle arm can situate either on the left or right
side of engine carburetor. To address this discrepancy our Extra 260 design allows you to
place throttle servo on the side of the throttle arm by using glue-in plywood mounting rails to
anchor the servo. Make frequent references to photos and illustration to complete the following
steps.
1. A plywood mounting rail consists of gluing two pieces of
45mm x 15mm x 2mm plywood together. You will find
provided in the kit four pieces of such plywood to make two
rails.
2. Once you have determined which side to install the throttle
servo, glue one mounting rail to the corner of the former
cutout using thin CA.
3. Position throttle servo so that one mounting flange rests on
the plywood mounting rail and slide the second rail under to
match up with the other mounting flange of the servo.
4. Glue the second rail in place. Since this rail is partially
suspended, use epoxy to glue it. When epoxy is completely
cured remount throttle servo.
5. Use Sullivan #580 CF push rod kit to fabricate throttle push rod. Cut both inner CF push
rod and outer housing to length. We recommend DuBro #181, Universal Ball Joint, for
end-point attachment to both throttle servo arm and engine throttle arm.
