Well, I've started working on my Black Magic VF3E again.

Have located the elevator servo which took plenty of procrastination... Hopefully my pictures will help others?

DEPS is almost fully installed. Just need to add support bracing.

Only using a single S9650 on the elevators.

Cheers,
Jason.
Jason,

I'd be apprehensive using a single S9650 to drive the elevators. The torque rating might be OK but the gears are a different matter, they are quite a bit smaller with finer teeth. It would be a shame to have the gears strip on you and all that work re-kit itself. Most guys I know using them are using one per elevator half.
