Default H9 Cap 232 1/4 scale?

RCpilet;

If you're interested, I'll post a pic of my set-up, which uses one servo per function, with an offset rudder servo and central elevator servo.

I too use a bellcrank to get around the necessity of having both the elevator and rudder servos centrally mounted.

Agreed, the supplied elevator pushrod is zilch. Ditto for the supplied push-pull hardware too, IMO. I used the Dubro kit for rudder cables, and a Dave Brown f/g arrow shaft for the elevator rod.

The elevator pushrod is, however, exactly the right size for adding an extension to the hardwood elevator frames where they want you to mount the Sullivan horns. IMO, that area is WAY too small. I cut a chunk off of the supplied elevator pushrod, which is the same thickness as the elevator wood, cut open the UltraCoate, and epoxied it in place.
