Default RE: Graupner Hawk build thread

I have now also installed the aileron servos. We are using JR 8711DS servos on all of the major controls on this model. Now the wing does have a hatch cut into it for the servo to be fitted but no mount is supplied for either the servo or the hatch. I have used a really cool servo mount from Graupner. This mount is laser cut from ply and uses the servos strengthening web to hold it into the mount. This mount was then glued into the wing with aeropoxy.

The control horn is cut from glass board and it’s doubled up with a Graupner aluminium ball link sandwiched in between. One the glue has dried an M3 pushrod will need to be made up, extension lead routed and the hatch installed.
