Richard,

Early on in the build I had installed the push rods to control the elevator and rudder externally. That was before Duane pointed outthat Ed used an internal elevator actuating rod. So, since the two rods I had already installed exited the fuselage at the same location on opposite sides of the fuselage I decided to make the rudder a pull/pull affair and the elevator an internal affair. Anyway, I just went ahead and used the Sullivan semiflex Gold-N-Rod to actuate the rudder. I could have used a cable arrangement but I already had the Sullivan rods installed, so I used them. BTW they work beautifully.

Yes that is the bottom of the wing and the wire is the landing gear wire.

The servos are upside down relative to the top of the fuselage, but that is the only logical way to mount them since the radio bay opens toward the bottom of the fuselage.

The internal elevator acuator works great. I still have to cut a hatch at the bottom rear of the fuselage to access the elevator end. Maybe tomorrow.

Also, I realize that my radio installation is somewhat compact considerng the amount of room there is available. On the other hand, when it comes to balancing I won't have to move a lot of hardware around. The way I did it gives me a lot of space to move the batteries in order to obtain the proper balance.
