All servos are not the same in speed when you are using 2 servos...... throttle angles & stroke & linkage geometry all need to be considered.

Single hi torque servo and a very carefully set up bellcrank system is the only way to do it right.

Different is not always better. if you ask me the throttle postions being exact..... is the #1 most critical tuning part of the boat. How many races has John Brown won lately? Haven`t seen john run a boat since the 2006 Nationals in Evansville........ its Now 2012... :blink: :blink:

Its like my good friend tells me all the time, "If you knew the difference between good advice and bad advice then you would need no advice."

Everybody's way is THEIR right way.

Keep Calm and Race On.

Ive seen Rich Moore rig his twin roadrunner with one servo for the throttles using the push pull method...thats the way i had it several years back in an

older twin..i really disliked that way because you can never get both barrels to open indentically..i WILL do the bell crank design no doubt, i just wanted to

know the pros and cons...thanks..
