I am getting ready to setup my preowned Focus version 1. The previous
owner had an OS 140 installed. I am putting a Mintor 170 in which is the
same weight. He had installed 2 Hitec 225MG servos in the tail for the
elevator halves. I am not a big fan of the 225MG series of servos so I
bought some mid size digital servos to replace the 225MG servos. The more
I am thinking about it should I put the digitals in there or should I patch
it and put a bell crank in. It seems to me to be a wash as far as weight
goes and the dual servos my even be a lighter option. For the bell crank
system I have the weight of a larger servo, bell crank, carbon pushrod to
the bell crank, then bell crank pushrods to the elevator halves. The two
small digital servos weigh approx 2 oz for both of them. I dont have any
problem doing the mixing of 2 elevator servos. So would the only deciding
factor between the 2 options be CG? I may be over thinking this but hey
that is one of the fun things with this hobby. Any help or advice would be
appreciated.
