I've been planning to install a left hand throttle on my 360 for a few years,

but have not thought about how to do it.  I'd like to have my right hand on

the stick and left hand on the throttle during approaches and landing.  I was

not planning on duplicating the carb heat, mixture and prop controls -- these

would presumably not be moved during the final landing throes.



I had always assumed I would use a torque tube under the seat -- one end

conected to the left hand throttle and one connected to the one in the center.

The center throttle lever would have the cable running through the firewall to

the carburetor.

 

Has anyone done this?  What do you think?
