Il conviendra de mettre en place le contrôleur dans une partie ventilée du modèle réduit si possible, tout dépend évidemment de la place disponible. Il faudra au moins avoir calibré le manche de « gaz » pour les premiers essais.
-----------------
only other time it appears in text is in list - calibration manche

I found several options: control stick, handle, column
not sure which to select
thanks in advance :-)

Hi Rita. I think this is simply a stick to adjust the speed/engine RPM (mettre les gaz)
