Default linkage

If someone can give me the chord and length of the elevator (the moving part) and the length of the horn (with respect to the hinge center line) and the length of the servo arm, I can calculate the servo loads at any combination of surface throw and airspeed.

This program will do a lot more than that, including design studies of rotary drive linkages (the totally concealed type used in sailplanes primarily)
