Default RE: First time using a retract servo, need help.

The retracts are the stock ones that come with the Hanger 9 AT-6, not sure what brand they are. I understand the actual wires are a bit weak, so I ordered some 3/16 wires from Robart.

Yes, when I hit the switch they retract all the way down to the locked position. Then I hit the switch up and they only come up about half way. When in the down locked position the ez connectors are in the 12 and 6 position on the circle servo horn. When up or half way up, they're in the 9 and 3 position or actually closer to the 10 and 4 position.

As per the instruction manual, I measured the distance between the full up locked and full down locked postion on the rods. Then took that measurement and found holes, again on the circle servo horn that matched up and installed the ez connectors there.
