      Terry,
      No hail anywhere that I am aware of. To be honest...I wouldn't mind a bit of wet weather again, I think 6 weeks ago was the last time I witnessed any wet stuff. The flying field is all dust and dirt and temperatures are only just becoming bearable.

        REAL football...is that what you fellas in the States call it??<VBG> Crash hats, all that girlie body armour, stop start, stop start....REAL football is played down here, Rugby Union, League and Aussie Rules-and we drive on the RIGHT side of the road too..hahahaha <VVBG>

        And just to warm a few more tempers ( since you fellas are enjoying your blizzards at the moment)-its a nice 82 Deg F, sunny and no wind down here!

        Have fun

            School was closed here in Farragut, Knox county schools today also. I think the few flurries we had over the weekend and the TV shots of the northeast being buried caused a "sympathy shutdown" of Knox county schools. :)

              I understand and sympathize. Over hear on the East side of the mountains there were snow flurries seen on last Thursday morning somewhere in the county so they delayed school opening two hours...

                Yeah, TN sucks. My property taxes are 1/3 they were in NY and I tried but TN refuses to collect state income tax from me. Weather sucks as I long for those January and February days of shoveling snow, chipping ice, mind numbing cold and falling on my butt.  I can drive a car around in my house ( full scale )...... Guaranteed immortality wouldn't get me to move back. Wait, is that a banjo I hear in the background ??? Ed M.

                      I call it a re-use of the dining room.  We had a 12 inch 'dusting' as well in DC.  Black ice everywhere this morning.  I am having fun turing Balsa in to mounds of saw dust.

                            What ever happened to the "obvious to one skilled in the art" clause? 
                            Maybe what is patented is the arrangement of servo-box, or extension arm ... in any case, this falls under the heading of re-patenting the wheel.
                            Granted, on a 3-D only setup, I'd hook up to the servo this way!

                                Never have seen it before, but I guess the main question I have concerns the potential for loss of effective torque transmitted to the control surface.  I see that they claim it's better due to no losses.  That would be true in the sense that you don't lose that little bit in the linkage friction etc., but if you only want, say, 25 degrees of surface throw each direction, it would appear that you would have to limit the servo travel to 25 degrees as well.  If that's true, then you have less mechanical advantage for a given degree of movement for the surface, since you would normally have a servo traveling about doub! le that distance.  The control surface speed would be quicker, assuming the load is handled without any blowback or slowdown of movement due to the effectively lower torque transmitted while moving.  Maybe I'm not seeing it right, but it looks like it might not be such a good thing to use, unless you were alr! eady planning on having something close to a 1:1 correspondence of degrees of servo arm movement to degrees of surface travel.
