                            <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.&nbsp; I see that
                            they claim it's better due to no losses.&nbsp; 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.&nbsp;
                            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.&nbsp; 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.&nbsp; 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>
