Hey Jay! how are you?

I have heard of that. Leaning heavily towards three gears to handle
relocation of box and the throttle reversal issue.
How about those HAL sensors. They work good? Which did you get?

I could do like Marv Said and skip the gears using a HAL sensor remote from
the box.

  You can do this by changing the axis using the cougar setup software (not
Foxy).  I had to do this for one of the axis when I replaced the pots with
Hall sensors.

  HI Chris, I finally got out to measure the throttle. I'll upload the
drawing I made of the dimensions. If you need anything else let me know.

  Also, if you make a pivet arm from the underside of the throttle and
attach it to the arm of the cougar then you can use the same electronics and
the movement will transfer. All you need to do then is remove the grip and
move to the homemade throttle arm. You will also have to turn the cougar
backwards. (forward is back, back is forward) then you move the throttle
arm.

  Hope this helps

  Ken

    Hey Ken Schlote,

    I saw the pictures of you leftside_rails.jpg on the members upload and
was
    wondering if you could provide 2 dimensions from it?

    The first is the diameter of the circular gear at the base of throttle
and
    the second is a chord of that circle just above the instrument panel
where
    the gear is positioned?

    Attached is small photo to help illustrate what I am talking about.
