I found another problem with my steering when I looked into it a few days ago. Upon closer inspection, the strut was very hard to manually turn by hand. Some dirt or crud must have gotten in there. I blew it out and lubricated at the top and its smooth now. The cables probably stretched as well as they needed tightening. I'm using a high torque digital for steering only because it's what I had on hand from a previous project. In the state the strut was in, a standard servo would have burnt out in short order. I know when I assembled the nose gear it wasn't like that. Will have to keep an eye on it.
