My face is red. I set up the auto responder yesterday evening when I was tired.
I failed to consider that mailing lists would not only get the autoresponder,
they would echo the reply, which would trigger the autoresponder again. The mailing
list did not need to be on the autoresponder in the first place.
When I checked my computer this morning, my box was full of the replies it triggered,
as I'm sure was everyone else's.
My apologies to everyone I inconvenienced with this. The auto responder has been
removed; should I need it again, I will insure it does not include the Zenith
mailing list.

Has anyone come up with a smoother operating dual throttle linkage? With
the curve downward on each throttle cable mine is not smooth. There must
be a better way. Bob

Hi Bob,
I didn't like the dual throttle in the kit, so I did a major redesign
for my plane. I copied the torque tube and moved it inside the
cockpit. It mounts with the arms hanging down to the bottom of the
horizontal channel that runs between the firewall and instrument
panel. It also mounts to brackets on both side skins. The arms are
long enough that they hang down to the same level as the throttle on
the engine. The throttle cable goes through the firewall at throttle
height and makes its way to a new brass fitting that is only an inch
long instead of the long one from the Jabiru USA kit.
I mounted the throttle knobs on the side of the cabin where my short
arms can reach without leaning out of the seat. I also put the carb
heat knob with the pilot's throttle knob.
All in, it was a huge change and took several weeks of effort. I do
think it was worth it since the throttle is very smooth now from
either the pilot or copilot side.
I can probably dig up some photos if you want them. I don't have any
drawings. To build one just like mine you will need some 3/8 O.D.
tubing and some flat stock to weld to it in three places. I reused
the nylon bearings for the center mount location and made some new
ones for the skin mount.
Good luck,
Paul

Hi Bob,
I didn't like the dual throttle in the kit, so I did a major redesign for m

mounts with the arms hanging down to the bottom of the horizontal channel

rackets on both side skins.- The arms are long enough that they hang down
to the same level as the throttle on the engine.- The throttle cable goe

I can probably dig up some photos if you want them.- I don't have any dra
wings.- To build one just like mine you will need some 3/8 O.D. tubing an
