Hey Jake,

Yeah about the drilling into the rudder....That is what I did because I ran my cables to both sides of the linkage rod and had it attached by a Hanger 9 swivel link. As for any shorts, I don't know of any off the top of my head but I remember being in the same boat as your in with the alignment because it is hard. But what I did was I put in on a drill press and leveled it off and just drilled it. Luckly it came out good but I was really worried.

And Jake, you said the servo mount tray is too high for the proper alignment in the exit holes?? How can that be, they precut you a servo hole and marked on the rudder with little red arrows where to place the rod so that the alignment between the cables and the rod is good. THe precut hole is probably too big for your servo so you have to make a little smaller hole and glue it over it. But as I said, they should have already marked where the servo and the rod should go in your airplane so everything is good

Sorry I can't give you any good sorts cuts or anything but I hope what I said hopes somewhat,

Neil
