Throttle quadrant
Messed around with the throttle quadrant a little bit. I discovered right off that the throttle lever was backward. The hole for the cable attachment is closer to one side than the other. The way the lever was installed, I couldn’t get the clevis end on it at all. I disassembled almost the entire thing just to get the lever turned around, but it was a good opportunity to figure out how it’s built. It really is a nice unit.
The other major problem is that there isn’t enough clearance between the clevis and the lever arms. You can see in this picture that the cables have to exit at nearly a 45 degree angle. That isn’t going to work. I’ve seen one builder file away part of the lever. I’m going to try filing the clevis end a bit.
I also measured the throw of the levers versus the throw needed. The throttle and mixture seem right on, but the prop pitch needs to be reduced. I’ll have to drill another hole, but that’s a good thing because right now the clevis pins would interfere with each other.
