Cheap home built throttle control.

[garrymny]

I just made a throttle controller for kicker motor. Used a servo for an RC airplane/car and a servo tester box. Simple. Cost is about $30. I couldn't post a video, which is on my Droid phone, it wouldn't accept an mp4. I will try to post some pictures later.

Cool!! I'd like to see that.

tried it out today. Works ok, but the servo doesn't want to hold the setting. I think I will try a better servo.

Ok, I ended up buying an iTroll.  Hooked it up, but never got to try it.

Offseason is made for tinkering.  Cool project.
