Default RE: EDF Predator UCAV from Nitro Planes

I thought this next step was going to be much more difficult but it turned out quite easy since the non-marked area to be cut inside the servo frame was soft enough to use just a razor knife.

The Hitec HS-81 servos fit perfectly in the plywood bay frame opening. I secured 36" HD extensions to the control lines by first tying the connectors with Firewire and then covering them with shrink wrap. The lighter .6oz HS-81 servos will provide 42oz/in torque on my 6v CC BEC.
