Default RE: Got an ugly stick!

If it's built to the original plans, where the aileron tips have a bigger chord than at the fuse end, you might consider either using the original pushord/bellcrank system to get the control horns to the center of the aileron span or use a pair of servos with a Y connector to do the same thing or you will have aileron flutter. This was a problem when people started using the torque rod systems at the center section to drive the ailerons. Too much aileron area at the tips compared to the fuse ends.
