lay the servo on its side at the back of your turret, attach a control rod to the servo and use a computer board stand off on the back of the cannon housing somewhere. servo going through 90 degrees of operation should be more than enough to elevate and depress that gun.
360 operation shouldn't be needed on the servo. It looks like you have the space for it.

I have a HL KT that I modified by (many many things) pulling out the elevation motor and using a servo. I want to try a Clarke TK board, but I need to use the servo elevation system as there is no way of putting back the HL elevation motor.
Has anyone tried to modify a servo to make it a continuous motor and used that system? Since the Clarke board has the elevation motor that can change rotation direction (I'm hoping from reading the material), why not use a servo motor?
Any thoughts ?
