Control horns
Guys,
Wanna bounce this off ya....
I am building a SM MB339...the BIG one...anyway I am laying everything out and I am trying to determine what control surface horns to use where. I have 4 large horns and 3 small horns. I figure that two of the large horns are for the ailerons and the other two for the elevators. The 3 small horns for the flaps and rudder....what do you guys think? See the picture and tell me what you think....
Thanks!
(pay no attention to the date on the picture, I apparently have no idea how to work a camera! :-) )

RE: Control horns
On my one the small horns are for the rudder and elevator, the large are for ailerons and flaps. The flap horns are no use at all the geometry is all wrong, the horn pivot needs to be behind the hinge line not in front!
