RE: BME Edge?
Yes you are both right! 8611 is over kill but in the words of Mad Max from the Flying Cirkus. "All planes have a limited life. When you harvest the remains of your latest "Aunt Jemima" you will probably build a bigger model so you might as well bite the bullet now." I had no servos in this class and even 170 oz servos were close to $100 so a bit more and I got the top dog!
SparHawk. Thank you for the reply, but it seems to me that moving the point of rotation closer to the horn would exaggerate the problem, not alleviate it. Did I miss something?
DirtyPool: You did not miss anything! You got it by George! I did consider lying the servo on it's side. Have not figured out the best way to do that yet as I came up with another idea. I have access to a CNC milling machining and I could make a "universal joint" to fit the CH horn. Kind of a little clevis over the horn with a 90' flat spot for a ball end. I know the description is weak with out a picture but I don't know how else to describe it. I was just hoping there was a way to do this with off the shelf goodies.
The Ideal thing would be if Chip had a version of this horn available with a ball swivel like the Robart horns.
