If anyone would like to fabricate something like this, these servocity hubs are nice

About 1k if I had to guess unless you order through a certain company that brings in a large freight container

I spent a lot of time looking jims over, I'm planning to get one. Lifes throwing some curve ball priorities but I already have a scheme and everything for my F model!

I wonder why the control throws are so much more compared to the smaller C version? Silly question maybe??

Elevator is 40mm on the small C and 85mm on this bad boy!!

its been awhile since I have done a real in depth build. The builds keep me from missing something during a build and so far have lead to some successful models.
