Here's my setup, you will need to make braces for the pushrods in the fuse, you can do it all by removing the covering from the bottom of the plane. I'm using the sullivan semi-flex rods, and you need the braces to keep them from flexing, I just put a brace at every fuse former. This setup works very well and I have no slop in the linkages, you can see I moved the throttle servo forward of the stock servo mounts and used the outermost stock mounting holes for the two elevator servos.
Wow very nice and clean set up. But I was thinking to install the servos in the tail (1 servo for each half of the elevator, 1 servo on the each side of the fuselage). IMO I hope it will help me to balance the plane. I know a couple of people did that and I just want to see some pictures before I start slicing and dicing fuselage...I do not want to make wrong decision. Thanks a bunch for the replies
