thats a very good idea Ramstein44 but the tracking of the rods at the Y is not a straight run and has to bend to get from the fuselage to the elevator halves, I put it aside last night to think about the whole setup and i will have another look this morning SCALECRAFT seems to have a very good set up but I dont think this can be done after the elevator has been installed I am going to think about some methods like two servos, golden rods, push pull and see what I come up with....
