G38 / ziroli DC3 throttle setup
Hello All,
I'm building a Ziroli DC3 and I'm starting to mount the G38 engines. Wondering from those that went before me if you have any suggestions on linkage setup/ servo placement? Better yet pictures would be great. Or any other advice would be welcome!

Jim,
I am considering this airframe as my next project. Just wrapping uyp a Top Flite Stinson Reliant.
Will you please give me your general impressions of the build and who cut your kit, assuming you purchased a cut kit.
Thanks,
Bo

Bo,
I have a great fasination with the DC-3 and this Ziroli Design is the closest thing to owning the real thing. As you have read before it is a older design without alot of concideration to weight??? But it is a very nice build LARGE but nice. Precision Cut did the cutting we had a few issues but did get them resolved. I highly suggest some kit cutter vs. doing it yourself. I do not have much experience stick building so this is a learning / life experience. Glad I'm doing it. If it was easy anyone could do it and then I would not be interested then.
