The flaps have a horn "embedded" that sticks into the inside of the wing. It seems to me that it will be very difficult to hook up the control rod from the servo to the clevis/horn. You cannot get an accurate measurement with the flap servo out of the wing. I just don't see how you can hook it up and get accurate measurements, let alone hook the rod to the servo and then mount the servo.

Please tell me I'm missing something here.
