Servos should ideally be mounted so that the horn is at right angles to the servo, and not in line. This would tend to mean the servo is paralel to the datum line of the plane. If it is in line, then the forces will cause the servo to pivot about the mounting screws, giving less deflection than intended, and changes to deflection depending on air speed.
My thoughts exactly! That is why I was surprised to see that the cutouts for the servos in the fuselage are made in such a way that the servo horns would be inline with the servos. I will probably try to figure out a way to mount them in the traditional way.
