Default RE: Byron Wedell Williams Racer Build

Finished up servo installation by making the two elevator pushrods using the carbon fiber shafts from the wing build. One end is threaded for a 4-40 ball clevis at the elevator, the other end is a 4-40 rod that will be cut and have the clevis soldered on. The pushrods are crossed in the fuse. The clevis keepers were a PITA when trying to get the clevis on the control horn so I will use glow fuel tubing later. Have not decided where to place the switches yet. The plans locate it on the underside of the wing faring. Checked Rudder and Elevator at full deflection and nothing binds or strikes another surface.
