Electronic thottles

[Gavin Walker]

Hi Guys
  I read recently that as part of the Merc skid control system they
switched to using a remote throttle.  i.e. there is no cable
connecting the pedal and the throttle.  Are the current stepping
motors sufficiently quick for this?  I can see advantages in idle
control, gear selection and dual throttle bodies.

  Well the volume of this list is getting too much for the moment so
I've sign off for the next few months.  When I get closer to
materialising my project I'll hop back on.  See you guys later.
