1/6 race throttle

I wanted to install the race throttle on my SH. So I bought an HRC throttle from Dan Kyle for the RC51. If it didn't work I would use it on my RC.

I sent the stock throttle, cables and HRC throttle to Motion Pro. I told them how long I wanted the new cable so I wouldn't have any problems using the Heli bars or Converti bars.

This was very easy and some thing I wanted to share with all of you if your interested.

Dan Kyle Ph# 831-394-1330
Motino Pro Ph# 650-594-9600

HRC throttle $100.00
New cables $60.00
Shipping $30.00
Total $190.00

Good Luck!

radioktiv,
The factory throttle should be 1/4 turn. This is not scary at all its very easy to control.

ah, i thought you meant 1/6 the travel of the OEM turn

as ive heard of many racers (mostly drag racers) setting the turn for one quarter turn

Yes the 1/6 is less than the 1/4 OEM. So you move your hand less to get full throttle.

Just posted a comment about this topic to the other post. Here is a quote:

"I ended up taking my RC45 throttle tube off. It turned out to be about 1/5 turn and it was way too aggressive. It made wheelies really tough and, as mentioned above, was difficult in slow speed first gear maneuvers. The throttle tube is now in my spare parts tub, never to return to the VTR. It might be a good thing to put on an inline 4 if I ever get another one of those (doubtful, too slow)."
