Default RE: SERVO MOVES

There are just the tiniest bit of covering bits sticking out near the hinges, and a few of the previously cut hinges are sticking out about 1/16" but none of it appears to be rubbing anything. I did notice at one end of the elevator is off-line maybe 1/16" off center - will that effect it alot? The elevator does move evenly across without bending anywhere that I notice. If I end up having to take the elevator off again using covering for hinges like Groundforce-RCU suggests prob wouldn't be enough for a .40 powered trainer? They are more suited for park-flyers and some electrics.

Make sure there is NO covering in the way anywhere around the elevator but especially near the hinges. You'd be surprised how little it takes. Make sure the previously cut off hinges are not sticking out and rubbing. Then tighten down the servo a little more and go fly it as long as the elevator actually moves through the desired range. Check the battery before EVERY flight, something you should do anyway.
