Default RE: dual servos on elevator


ORIGINAL: CORSAIR 0307

I TRIED IT WITH A Y-HARNESS BUT I COULD NOT GET IT DIALED IN CORRECTLY, IN THAT ONE WOULD GO FURTHER IN ONE DIRECTION OR THE OTHER. I TRIED TO BUY MATCHED SERVOS, MEASURED THE LINKAGE AND ADJUSTED EVERYTING IMAGINABLE. ANY ADVISE WOULD BE APPRICIATED.
Simple way around that is to use the threaded rod style of control horns. Then what you do is on the side that moves more than the other you just wind the connector tab out a turn or two and try again. At some point the motion will be so close to identical that it'll be fine.

But I must admit that I had not thought about the fact that there is tolerances and differences in servos like you found.
