Default RE: New LEO 110 build

That is a good thought, I will fix the problem with a new plate or some harwood rails placed in somehow, something to stiffin it up

The question is servo roll or flexing in the mounting system of the servo , the rubber grommets.
they are of course how you mount the the radio gear and second they help with vibration damping very little at that but they do
I use to run Duct Fans and Pylon Planes and the biggest killer there was vibrations. in those planes there was not much room for the servos so they were fitted very tightly or stuffed in with a shoe horn

The other question do I raise the rudder servo to miss the elevator servo or
If I run it down the side of the fuselage. what wil this do for me
I Haven't done the pull/ pull cables yet, I still have time to switch things around
If I keep the elevator servo were it is and raise the rudder I should be okay [&o]

I remember putting servo in straight direct aligment with the pushrods and not turning them sideways,
is this because of the balance issue or that there is much more area to use for mounting equipment
Servo back in the old days were not that strong
Todays new servos, stronger and faster has change everthing


Back to the question at hand is there any other way to mount servos beside rubber gromments or direct connection
I know giant scale are actually mounting them in the control surface and hooking the servo arm directly to the moveable part and running the system with no linkage at all direct connection to the control surface
