Default Comp-Arf 2.6M Extra 260 (Ailerons)

Guy's just wanted to see if there has been any other problems with running one servo per wing halfon the Comp-arf 2.6M Extra 260 of a rep at the Joe Nall show sold me one with everything set-up, thought I was getting a real deal, well you know how them real deals go. After four lumbering flights it was time to ring her out. Well after the first snap roll, in she went. After examination and others watching the flight it was discovered that the phenolic aileron control horn broke, all we could summarize was the twisting on the aileron broke it.The servo was a new JR 8711, Just as a heads up, be very careful running only one servo per wing on these airframes as they were designed for two ailerons per wing half. Oh yea the rep did say he was sorry for my loss.
