RE: Hempel 50% BD5 Build
Finally got a little time to work on the jet....
The elevator set up is next....There is a sturdy aluminum rod that joins the two elevators..This is controlled by a bell crank set up going to 2 servos in a push /pull config.Servos are mounted almost in the center of the airframe in a mounting plate built for them . A 4mm bolt holds the bellcrank to the joining aluminium rod. I found that my tap was a little worn and the fit slightly loose..so I stepped the bolt up to 8-32...zero slop. Each elevator half is held in place with 2 x 3mm screws...simply drill/tap and bolt them up Level of course.
