Thanks guys.
Jason,
The elevator halves don't join so I need two linkages. Rear mounted feels much easier to mount and service. If I mount two servos for theelevator, I still need a long linkage for the rudder as I've run out of sides to mount it. I notice a lot of 40 size planes have rear mounted elevator and pull-pull rudder mounted in the nromal servo tray position.
Paul,
We've settled back quite well, thanks. My wife is back to work 2d/wk and so I've reclaimed a midweek flying opportunity (after my share of the housework is done
).
