I've come across this throttle mod, and apart from adding a bit of bling to the throttle set up, what does this mod actually do to the performance of the throttle/brake, free things up?

Thanks

Are you talking about the OFNA throttle mod? Yes, it provides smoother movement. It also allows you to fine tune your linkages, which is good for people with stock radios. You get all the torque provided by your servos to your brakes. I noticed that when I did this mod my brakes did much better. I think the stock linkages would remove some of the torque, I replaced the spring with fuel tubing too.

the ofna mod is almost a must have. since it allow the links to move more freely most the servo's energy actually hits the brakes. the fuel tubing replaced the stock spring b/c the spring was too soft.
