Default Duel elevator linkage

I have always been concerned about having a single elevator linkage on my Comp Arf 3.0 Yak but never knew how to fix the problem . The main issue has always been the fact that Comp Arf do not align their elevator arms to be used with ball joints and you end up with each end being off centre about 5.0mm either way .

Hows this for a fix to the problem , now I have perfect alignment and also a dual linkage also no side torque on the swb arm or servo . Yes it just sitting there , I need some spacers and longer bolts .

Too bad you had to do something like this for a fix, expensive, but very nice fix..
