By using the right servo with low weight this is very practical. The cost was higher but by running each servo wire into a separate receiver port kinda makes for a bit of redundancy in case one should pack it in. Not that I was concerned in that area as the servos used are pretty high quality. Application outweighs the cost for me.
The took the weight of the added weight in the tail and subtracted the weight of a metal cross link and a pushrod and added weight was not a whole lot more...
