OK, so KE ability is being used as a yardstick... I can do a KE over the field OK, in fact I have trouble not tipping it over the top when I do it. KE loop? I'll need a stiff drink before I try that but I can get back to you maybe after the weekend. Should I take "before" pictures?

BTW, do we all agree that it seems like the rudder servo is the one being the most stressed for this plane?

Yea, the rudder is fairly large and only gets 1 servo, i'm running a 5645, and it feels like I'm getting a little blowback, something to do with my pull-pull setup, I need to work on that I think this servo @ 180oz on 6v has PLENTY of torque and holding power

Regaurding your last post, When I was first looking for servos, I was looking for the same thing, who really knows exactly what we need? But when I saw the prices on the 56X5 hitecs, roughly 40-45 in a big flight pack while they were on sale, nothing else comes close for bang/buck, they have way more torque than H9's requirements, and there is no reason to go to a lesser servo, prices don't go down that much...

edit, my error, 5645's are 168oz @ 6v
