I have been looking at every single post here, trying to learn as much as I can... Will be getting an AD Phoenix as soon as they are available... I repeatedly see pics of people using stock servo arms on their control surfaces.... On my big planes, always used metal arms in fear that the big surfaces would rip the splines off a nylon servo wheel. I know the surfaces are smaller on jets, but I figured the speed 150mph + would make it about even the forces the servos are seeing compared toa big plane... I have also seen regular clevis type connectors....

Whats the deal? Is it overkill to use metal servo arms? I would think the HD ball link type connections would be ideal with turnbuckles....


thanks, Mike
