Thanks Jon
Thanks Jon,

i placed the the servo as far forward as I could which ends up next to the spar. The rib and the spar help box in the servos. Then the linkage is attached to the servo horn and it ends up coming out as you see, pretty low and further back at the TE. On the surfaces the horns are epoxied keeping in mind the center of the hinge pivot. I used a t-pin thru the lowest hole to set the height while it cured.

I'll take a couple of pics of the servo pockets for you.
