<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>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
already planning on having something close to a 1:1
correspondence of degrees of servo arm movement to degrees of
surface travel.</FONT></DIV>
