BentMetal,


From my own experience, I dont like the single aileron servo. Not just for the possibility of a failure, regardless of mechanical or building techniques, but for performance purposes. One servo operating one control surface is more likely to stand up to more abuse or poor craftsmanship. With the way this kit is set up, there is a lot of push rod between the servo and the aileron. Shortening that distance can only better the operation of that surface, IMO. Those who do not belive so and can throw away $1,00.00, take the risk. As for me, rather be safe than sorry!
