Edge, I should have been more specific. Yes it's a good read but in the bold the author commented that tight linkages were not enough to prevent flutter and that counterbalances must be used. That's the part I couldn't swollow. The article was written around full scale airplanes with manual flight controls. Humans make poor flight control actuators and need balanced controls, models do not.
