My Sabre's dummy survived the crash, he is looking for a new plane to fly in. He survived 2 crashes, from prop plane to turbine, but not DF yet. Would you like to take him?

AUW is 10 lbs even empty, this should be a rocket with the K&BV.77

All was needed was one servo arm for one of the flaps. upon installing the arm and acutating the flaps(pcm radio not computer so no mixing) one flap worked as it should have and the other went up motion, so I had to flip the servo, .
In the pictures you see that the control horn will have to be relocated , does anyone think this location where the screw driver is in the last picture for the control horn would be safe or not?

How about using a reverse Y harness. That way you don't need to make a new control arm?

Wish my 7ch receiver had an AUX ch then I'd try it without the Y-harness, then again without mixing ,still dont know if that would have worked.

If you use an reversing Y harness one servo should rotate the opposite way from the other one when both face the same direction. This should solve the problem?

If i face them the same direction they work fine but with control horn conflict but , facing them opposite one servo is reversed.

Exactly so.. if you use a reverse Y Harness, when facing each other they will work in concert.

Problem solved, I flipped the servo and put a nice z bend in the control rod.look odd but works great and doesnt give slack when deployed(strong enough for flaps).
odd looking but this is just going to be a beater plane.,also order the aft stars & bars and found the military #6 that ive been looking for so i'll replace the nascar looking 6 with the new
military 6,order some landing lights for old yeller too.all from SIG.
