at the servo arm,the reason being that your means of adjustment-the clevis,is accessible instead of being on the servo arm.

I have also never had an EZ connector failure, but that's another subject. If you prefer Z Bends, put them at the servo.

RE: It all depends.
I have a Graupner Z-bender. Very Nice.
On lightweight park flyers like my GWS Tiger Moth, I use a Dubro micro-something-or-other on the control arm (tightens onto the control rod with a screw) and a Z-bend at the control surface.
On bigger planes, I use a clevis at the control surface and a Z-bend at the servo.
Regards.
