Post some pics!! LEt us know how it goes. Is anyone using the big stock tank in the nose besides me?

Bad news on the hidden linkages for the ailerons. I finished them after spending half the week on them but I was very unhappy with the torque and resolution of the servo. Would not make for a precision flying aircraft. So pulled out the linkages and went back to the stock way on the wings. I will leave the rudders alone they seem be fine with the hidden linkages. I used bent rods on the ailerons for more throw and that's what killed the torque.
