RE: Building the BVM Electra Jet
Forgot one little detail about mounting the flap servo. The rubber mounting tabs on the JR servo that is to be used as the flap servo create a space between the hardwood mount and the servo that makes the assembly slightly wider than the "keys" in the rib which hold the servo mounts themselves. Don't know if this is the case with all of their servos, but I trimmed the tabs on the rubber mounts to eliminate this gap and the servo fit perfectly. Conversely, you could notch the servo mount to provide for clearance for the tab if you find you have this "fit" problem. By the way, I completed fitting the servo into the servo mounts, drilling and installing the servo before gluing the mounts into the wing. That way I knew that everything fit and avoided the problem of having to alter the servo mounts after they had been glued into the wing. See photos below for more detail. On to the landing gear assembly. Starting to look like an Electra wing!!!!
