G,day. Can anyone tell me which servos to use on the elevons of the Simitar 3000 ?

Rule of thumb, for every square inch, or square 2.54 centimeters, of area of a flying surface the servo must have at least that much ounce inch of torque.

See all of the Simitar construction articles and a couple build logs of Simitars including my 3000 here; (Sorry I can't remember which HiTec servos I used but they were the 1/4 scale size)

On page 20 something of the first link, there are instructions on how to download all of the old VHS Simitar videos made by Bill Evans and friends.

Let me know if you need anything else!

Tight Turns,

Claude
