Default Stabilator Control/mounting preferences.

So while working on my 1/7 F-14 project, i have come to the time to start designing the stab control mechanisms.

So what does everyone prefer for their stab control mechanisms.. The Jet legend/Skymaster/Feibao/FEJ aluminum system such as shown below?
