I like my DPDT switch better, I have the channel programmed with the ignition on in the center and up positions...

    I move the spring return switch from the right side to the left side and use that (SF) for the choke servo. With this set up I can hold the throttle closed with my thumb on the side of the stick and use my index finger to toggle the choke.

    Scale Mick Reeves 1/3 scale Tiger Moth

    The fellow that had the Valach 60 at the scale contest had carb trouble so I didn't hear it run other than a few test runs, he was quite pleased with it. The engine did look very nice. He had put a spiral diaphragm kit in it and that was his problem. He had a muffler on his plane and I was...

    Scale Mick Reeves 1/3 scale Tiger Moth

    There was a fellow at the Northeast Scale Contest with a Tiger Moth. Powered by a 60 sized Valach single. The engine and muffler assembly were mounted on a sliding plate that was removeable. I think I can track him down if you like. Didn't even think about it until traveling home.

    A J3 Cub flew into the Chenango Bridge airport during the contest, I snapped a photo of the interior paint. Probably too late but good reference for someone in the future.
