RUDDER SERVO INSTALLATION USING PULL PULL SYSTEM

Considering the existing bay servos I decided to install a HS-475 Ball bearing servo, with 61 oz at 4.8 volts force which I believe enough for this planes size. Firstly I measured the bay and installed the servo at the center of the bay, I clipped the cables to the servo arm and run them trough the inside of the fuse, finding that the tab of the middle former that is intended to hold the elevator push rods was blocking the cables from running free so I cut this formers tab, I installed again and cross them to see how they run and found necessary to beef the back of the fuse where the cables needs to exit, I could leave them just like that and reinforce the covering but I want to use those nice plastic push rod exits and decided to beef them out.

I will perform some other tasks as the engine installation and the covering which I intend to post here, so keep around and keep posting.
Thanks.
Alfred.
