If you can get a servo that close to the moveable surface, can't you use a regular torque rod system?

I suppose your approach could work, but you will loose a lot of the servo's torque.

THe servo is design to rotate 90 degrees total, give or take. I would figure on a scale jet, you are not going to want more than 10 or 12 degrees in each direction (and even that sounds like a lot). So that would be 20 -24 degrees total.

So the effective torque is say (24/90) times less, only 26% of the torque you would get if you could set up the linkage to use all of the servo's throw.


PS your slop will be a lot worse too.
