Default RE: Byron A-4 Skyhawk EDF conversion

Looks good, one thing I realy sugest is not using the nirod control linkages , my a4 and f16 both had stab and aileron flutter .Some of the flutter was cured by some lead in the leading edge of the stab close to the root but the final fix was to move the servos close to the aileron and stab control links and use 4/40 hardware to connect. I kept the linkages as short as posible and ended up with a whole new animal as far as solid control of the plane, and at 135 mph 4ft off the deck you definitly don't want flutter or sloppy control surfaces, just my thoughts.
