Default RE: Cap 232 elevator u link

GB,

I'm working on a Midwest 1/4 Cap.

What I have done is used a single pushrod with a symetrical "Y" at the end to drive both elevator halves. To prevent geomemtry problems the Elevator Servo is mounted on its side with the Servo arm on the center line of the Fuz so that there is no left to right displacement as the Pushrod moves back and forth... I hope the above makes sense without pics... Oh and you will need to use a Heavy Duty servo for this kind of setup... I happen to have a spare S9152 which is more than enough but expensive...

Good Luck,

Hibrass
