Good stuff guys.

Welcome back Scott. FG is always just a click away. Been researhing making Pilot figures. There was a thread on RC groups in the scale sailplanes section. Not sure if anyone saw the cover of High Flight with the sailplane on it but you couldn't tell it was a model.

I guess the cat is out of the bag. Went shopping at Lowes for servos.

One installed servo. One to go.

Can I ask why so far out from the root? Just curious.

I think Karl intends to drive the upper ailerons via a slave strut like Momma. Those struts are out where the interplane struts attach as well.

Sure.. the output shaft is centered here on the strut centerline. One servo for 2 wings. Mechanically it is the best place.

and the spades is good for what??? just asking.. more force to the ailirons..??

The slave strut is just outboard of the lower center hinge and I strut and just inboard of the upper center hinge and I strut.

Spades are power steering used to lighten aileron forces for pilots that whine a lot!...

they want me so we make them available.
