Throttle Control Nut Keeper

Chuck do you think this could be installed on a finished airplane?

Looks like a neat, simple and well made addition.

I have not not tried it but it should be fairly straight forward to add it by removing the fuel selector switch panel. Indeed it would likely be easier to install the not keeper than trying to hold the existing nut in place to adjust the tension.

Chuck,

Is this wrench they sell doing about the same thing? Of course not as easy to use as with the nut keeper in place. http://store.cubcrafters.com/Throttl...ch_p_1629.html

That wrench serves the same function. The nutkeeper eliminates the need for another tool.

Yes, the nut keeper would definitely be the way to go since you don't have to have and use the tool and can adjust it anytime with just a screwdriver.
