Default RE: s/m 1/6 f16 in my hot little hands!

g'day tor, my elevators shake, i promise!! heres a few photos, a lot of work to do it, but it will be worth the effort. whenever i get into this sort of work, i'm reminded of how much i like arf's!!! i also do not mass balance, i have done in the past, mainly when servos were 4kg, not 25kg, i don't notice any difference, maybe there is but it doesn't worry me too much. if you look at most fullsize all flying stabs they almost all droop to the rear when powered down, i hope this doesn't start a tirade about balance!
the bracket is, dare i say it, jetlegend, and the pivot is titanium, nice little set. a 9mm outside and 8mm inside dia brass tube is placed in the existing (copper!) bush and helps with alignment, servo position needs to change to align with torque arm.
its all pretty straight-forward, if a little time consuming. will update as progress continues,
over and out
