FOUND THE PROBLEM
the problem actually lies in the hinge line of the plane and not in the servo
the balsa below the fiberglass skin has detached itself from the fiberglass skin and also balsa cracked along the hinge line, thus causing the aileron to flex straight under load and create an effect as if i had no control
thats why as soon as i cut the motor , i regained aileron control
now to see how to repair the aileron
anyone have an idea?
Izzy, If you can find one of these,,, fill it with some thin or medium CA and inject the cracked balsa and or where the balsa has delaminated from the fiberglass.
With the wing laying upside down on your bench,,, Stick the needle thru the bottom side of the wing and then get the "feel" for when the needle touches the balsa on the bottom side of the topside of the wing,,, in other words don t punch thru the top of the wing,,, then hit it with the CA,,, Several applications along the cracked and delaminated balsa,,, will do the job!
Once you feel that you have applied enough CA,,, Here's the Hard Part,,, "walk away and leave it alone for a while" till the CA sets up.
If you happen to stick your finger,,, the bleeding will stop in a matter of seconds due to the CA
