Guys, what length servo arms are you using? I am trying to make sure I have everything ready by the time it gets here. I have some of the blue alum. servo arms for the hitec servos. They worked just fine when there where in my elan, but not sure about this one. The servo hatches look to be very similar to the elans. However, just wondering if I may need longer arms.
I think I used 1 to 1.25 inch all around. You dont need much aileron throw. I went a bit longer (hole out) on the flaps to get the throw. Elevator mae sure you use metal control arm.

The blue metal ones are what I used on the elevator, I purchased dubro thick plastic arms for the rest. The main thing is for the ball links you need some clearance unless you modify the servo covers to let the ball links go inside.
