Anticept Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Doesn't have the kind of strength that a machined piece has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennM Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 ABS is a common printing material and it is pretty strong in compression. You can also use carbon fiber reinforced ABS if you are worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BravoFoxtrot Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 I have also had a problem with the throttle loosening tension during cold weather. Works fine when it warms up again. Looked around at every hardware, farm supply, etc, store I could find, but nothing as well stocked as Roger's Ace Aviation apparently is. Finally broke down and ordered using Charlie Tango's McMaster-Carr link. Installation took 10-15 minutes. Will have to have some cold weather to see if it needs some additional adjustment. I will see if I can post some photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BravoFoxtrot Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 13mm wrench on nut, flat blade screwdriver inserted between block and bolt head to keep it from turning. No room for a wrench on head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
