Now If I may. altitude arcing happens just like it says at high altitude with full scale airplanes running unsealed magnetos. Idont think we should broach that subject in this venue.

There is a ton of mis-information being discussed in this thread. For example. The DS-821 servo.Dudeshow me some proof. I had those on my T-Craft and wrung that airplane out. Never 1 failure. That said read your airplanes manual and use theappropriate servo for thecorrect application. Onthe airplane videos I posted above, I contacted SIG and used the DS-821on the ailerons and used metal gear servos on the rudder and elevator.

Again there are a lot of choices to be made.There are manydifferent ways of doing things that achieve the same end result. Your way, my way, may or may not be better or worse than someother builder.

So to the OP. I think you will see a lotof BS is this thread. Some good some bad and some dont have a clue. You my friend are going to have to sift through it all and come out the end with the nuggets of gained knowledge. HoweverIwould quit reading this forum, go to your localfield, pick someone that flies gas airplanes and has been doing it awhile, then ask to look at their setup and take pictures.Do that again on another guys gas airplane, then again. You might even go to another field and do thesame.

Here is what you glean from this. You will see a pattern of how guysput their airplanes together and most of them will be similar with a few exceptions and it all boils down to choice, such as bettery placement, this radioor that. But what you need to pay attention to are the basics.How was the engine mounted. How didhe run his controls. etc. Once you gainsome knowledge. Come backto this forum and read through all the BS and have a good laugh at all the mis-info here.

My 2 cents.
