Default RE: FLUTTER problems flying the "U Can Do 3D"
I would agree with WCB.
I am just now getting back into the hobby after a 20 years abscence and I am assembling a UCD 60 so I have "kept my ear to the ground" regarding flutter.
You want to give the mechanical advantage to the servo and not the control surfact.
Like WCB suggests use the outermost hole in the elevator control horn and then use the servo arm length to gain additional surface throw if needed. Also make sure you have no play in the elevator or servo holes where the pushrod connects.
Hope this helps!
