<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>In the picture I see that you use long servo arm. Looks like the
ratio in your linkage is very close to 1:1. I could be wrong because the
angle in the picture. In my pattern planes, I usually finish with a
ratio of 1:3. That means that if the horn (distance to the hinge line)
is 1.5 inches, I use 1/2 inch servo arm. Usually the servo arms that
come in the servo works well for me. One time I tried to set up with a
ratio one to one and the plane was practically unflyable for precision.
I use for elevator high rate (spins) about 20 degrees having the radio rate
set 150% (60 degree of servo movement is converted to 20 degrees in the
control surface). I use the flying modes to reduce the throws for normal
fly to get around 8-10 degrees (around 65% in the flying mode).</DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=510200222-03112006><FONT color=#0000ff>cause that was
back on the Jekyll and the wing was only 3/4" thick. It was easy to get it
centered on the hinge line. I think the new wing thickness is double that
so I might need a bit more reach forward.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

[NSRCA-discussion] control horns</DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hi all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What are you guys using for control horns on your planes?
Last things I used</DIV>
<DIV>were a 6/32 bolt and "aileron horns" with a clevis. Is that
still the way to</DIV>
<DIV>do it or is there something better. Not interested in the MK
BB stuff, too</DIV>
<DIV>"good" for me.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
<DIV>Jason</DIV>
