RE: Beat On 50 build
Hallo winglift,
It was just a note.
Normally a flexible rubber mounting reduces the vibrations, so the servo has to be free mounted, and not touching the servo bay only the screws and rubber.
In that case a lengthwise position is always the best (also for hysterese in the mounting position!), but I also think the forces arn't too much in your situation, so I think it is all oké.
Maybe other people do have their opinion, I do not know this plane in detail!!!
Keep in mind, when you fly the plane and have the re-trim level many times, to look again at this subject!
Cees
