Bob, one of the threads has about 2 pages on the elevator setup, the options and the ways servos have failed before. At the end of the day, the view was the SG method was the best so I'd go with that. To be honest some of the worst built/installed models I've ever seen have been LMA models so I'd go with what you know works and is proven the world over.....

The other option is to mount the 2 servos directly to the stab in the tail under the stab cover. In that scenario you want a failed servo to go 'loose'. There is no ideal or perfect setup. It's in the lap of the Gods - where it happens, if it happens, how it happens and if it's your lucky day i.e. your chosen method tallies with the servo failure type......
