Throttle Quadrant

Throttle Quadrant Study this picture carefully; yes that is a choke! It is vitally important to remove the choke ASAP on starting and bring the RPMs up to 2500 to smooth out the engine's operation! Confusion here can lead to problems. The brakes are hand actuated and lock on with the red knob. This plane should be plugged in every night so the oil is warm on start-up and quicker to get to run-up.
