Default RE: Building the Flea-Fly

Steering is done That was a big hurdle and I just have the ailerons to face up and attach using solarfim. Every thing is down hill from here. I used the Kavan 4oz flexi tank in the end as it was the only one that let me get the battery linkage and fuel tank in to that small bay. I am doing a final sanding down in preparation for starting covering. I probably will cover the elevators then the stab then the rudder then the vertical stab under rear fuz front fuz and the wing some where along the line.
The servos are what I have used on similar fast small aircraft, a Turnigy HD Mini Servo 16g, these are just about the right size. The wing will only have one servo as although the current is only marginaly higher with two the fact is that it takes 100percent more with two than the one in the centre. A S148 would fit fine but normal servos are going to clutter that small fuz very quickly.
Post some pics of your installation; it will make an interesting comparison.
