Default Morris Knife Kit

I bug out an old Morris Hobbies Knife kit that I bought at a swap meet a few years ago and was considering building it this winter. However, I was wondering if anyone put their elevator and rudder servos on the tail versus in the wing and using the stock pull-pull method?

Lots of folks have done that. Not sure what they did with the CG, but it must not have been an issue because I do not recall many reporting problems.

Thanks, Jeff. I had a Top Cap and am I not a fan of the pull pull setup. Seemed like I have to do a lot of adjustments.

this will not work without moving the wing location, or shortening the nose dramatically. i hate pull pull to what i did on mine was to simple use a 2-56 long metal pushrod and strap to the fuse sides with landing gear strip holders.

That would work too
