Default GP Giles 202 .46 kit rear servo mod

I am building the Great Planes Giles 202 .46 kit and will be using the Saito 100 engline which means that the rudder servo should be placed in the rear location. The suggested location is on the bottom of the tail which to me looks goofy and the resultant geometry of the linkage is very awkard. I think I have a better solution to solve this problem.

I constructed a simple box for the servo and installed the box in the tail in front of the former. I then made an access panel to allow one to install and work on the servo. The following photos of this procedure will give you a better idea of this modification.
