Disclosed is an automatic throttle arrangement utilizing a servo which receives commands from a controller on an aircraft and responsively rotates a mechanical device that is linked by a cable arrangement with the aircraft’s throttle lever enabling automated throttle control. The mechanical device can be fixed to the throttle lever assembly using rivets designed to fail in case the servo/cable arrangement jams. This leaves the lever able to continue manual function.
