Hi Mark, hope you're feeling better. There are no extension. Rudder servo just plugs into RX.. also this is a new servo. The old servo was new too. Both where hitec 7955's I still wonder about those black ends on the rudder. I'm wondering if they are fighting the servo at full deflection.

jUST A LITTLE MORE TO ADD TO THE EVENT. The city of St Charles has an event called Hot Summer Nights where all the resturants and bars close the streets and serve everyone outside in downtown St Charles. It is a historic area that is really cool. We will put together a plan to have everyone meet down there, it will be lots of fun.

Do you have a pic with it all put together? looks like a matter of leverage.

cool mark, sounds fun! would that be more of a friday night or a saturday night thing?
does anyone know if Jared Sisk and John Light are comin out next weekend?
last question, does anyone know how i can get a hold of Chris Gini?

Yo Brian, how much tension are on those tailwheel springs? they look awefully tight...
at full rudder deflection, could they be putting too much strain on the servo maybe
causing some kind of voltage overload?

Mark, thanks for asking. Here are a few pic's. The rudder is 3" wide where it connects to the pull pull cables. The servo arm is 3" and I have tried a 4" also. Now I'm wondering about using an offset arm when the connections of the pull pull cable are even with the hinge line. The cable on both side are tight through out the movement. I have tried replacing the 7955 servo with another new 7955 and the problem did not improve at all. So my servo was good. I have room in the tray for another servo, but if I'm having a setup problem then throwing another servo in the mix will only mask the problem. Also the cable are not crossed. Thanks for every ones help... Much appreciated!

Saturday night is the Hot Summer Nights, The pic I would like to see is of the cable attachment at the rudder

[66stang]

Mark here are some pic's. Not the clearest. The camera kept fogging up before I could get a shot.Lol Hotter than he!! out side.

Now that I look at that second pic.. I think it's the ends on the rudder. Do you think I should just do away with them and put those small conectors on the end of the rods and not worry about getting even with the hinge line.

Why don't you tell them about the landmark in your parking lot?

I would publicly like to thank BigBird for his help this past weekend.

I was flying at like 4,000 feet and Jason said "Dude quit being a P**** and get that plane on the deck"
I said.. Ummm ok.. and He siad "Don't sweat it, I'll help you"

Ok. cool. so on the deck I came and Jason said.." Good, here's the help.. DON'T CRASH".

So THANKS Jason, better advice has never been given!

[TimDavie]

If BigBird can't solve your problem in 5 words or less, there isn't a cure or you just don't get it.
Sounds like you got it.
