Has anyone repositioned their RV14 throttle/mix/prop to either a center pedestal or sidewall application (like an RV 8)? If so, pics and any early considerations you recommend would be great.
I noticed the flightchops machine has a centre mounted throttle - in front of the arm rest but I haven’t seen any more info other than a quick photo in the last video with Elliot Seguin.
Looks cool, I'm sure removing the floor pans/center panels/fuel filter will be a joy come inspection time
All these great mods make maintenance much more difficult, which often translates to it never gets looked at.
It's not bad enough you have to take out the CB panel to access the fuel pump/filter, but now you have to remove entire center console/control quadrant too.

Unless they went with wing root filters or the external access gascolator? (Either of which is probably mandatory if you went this way). Does the fuel pump need inspection at the annual or just the filter?
