Default Help! GP Ultimate 40 Aileron Servos

I have a question regarding the installation of 2 aileron servos in the GP Ultimate 40.
Do you mount them side by side and just modify the existing servo tray or is there a better
configuration?
From the plans it appears that they will fit in the fuselage, mounted side by side.
This is my initial plan unless someone has a better idea.
My only concern is that the push rod will be at quite an angle.

Thanks,
Don J

I put one per wing in a typical mounting position, put them on top of the wing instead of the bottom. I'll try to post a picture later today if you like.

surf,
I wonder if I just expand on the current servo tray, if that is workable?
The current configuration has the single servo hidden by the fuselage.
I would like to keep this configuration, just add one to it.

Thanks

I guess you could, there is plenty of room. I just always like to keep my control rods as short as possible. If you do go with your idea, I would use 4-40 diameter rods.
