Default Please Help, Anyone built the Dreamer?

Hello all,

I am 70% complete with my Dreamer kit (wings sheeted, hinged, sanded, ready for covering). I have started to build the fuselage and am running into a problem. I am getting all the bulkheads put in correctly and have assembled the cabane struts (no mean feat!) and I'm ready to join the tail section together,....but...before I do that, how do I put in the servos!?!?!?! I have built a shelf in the A-A section for the fuel tank, which I think I can do for the Throttle/Elevator/Rudder servos, but I'm not sure if they should go in upside down or rightside up.

Also, I'm using the bellcrank system in the lower wing per assembly instructions, but I would like to verify that I can use a single servo for both cranks. I'm thinking that I can link both sides to the single servo on a cut down 6 sided control arm (the two closest arms). I would just like someones wisdom who has done this plane before. This is my first kit ( I know, I know...bad idea!). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I have done a forum search for this information and have come up with bupkis.....................[&o]
