Default RE: Tiporare questions

Rangerman,

If installed the way you have drawn it, there certainly would be some difference in the travel of the two pushrods. I planned all along to offset the servo enough to center the servo arm and I also plan to use a Dubro reverse splitter to enable a single pushrod to actuate the flap control arms. The dual clevises will be minimized very close to the control arms. I believe that Dave Brown also sells a larger reverse splitter to support dual elevator actuation from a (mostly) single pushrod, but I'm going to adapt the Dubros for both jobs. In essence, it will be a single pushrod from the elevator servo to the exit holes at the rear of the fuselage, split there to the control horn on each side of the fueslage.
