RE: Deception 10 Build Thread
Before I tuck in and forget, I should mention:
I cut the retract rod wells in the wing as two opposing triangles with a common side along the LG axis. When retracted, the pushrods on either side line up along the LG axis with the rod connectors at 90 deg to the servo axis and in line with each other. When the LG is extended, the pushrods rotate and the connectors line up with the servo axis causing the rods to move diagonally along the wing chord - forward for one panel, rearward for the other. The rod openings in the gear servo bay show this assymetry (see photos above).
Now, we just have to hope it works as crudely tested... we'll need a joined wing first.
David.
