Jim,

Here are some pictures from John's build. He used a SWB self adjusting 3 servo tray on the plane, but used the supplied rudder tray supports to install the SWB, it fits down flush with the sides of the stock tray. He also put carbon fiber over the wood and formers that you see in this picture.

Also, when using the direct drive be sure and gind a flat spot on the piano wire with an edge for the set screw to catch. On rough fields this will help the wire from being pulled out as the plane bounces up and down. Loctite the wire and the set screw as well.
