Finally a servo install video that start where it should start. Most of others videos you see the guys having the tapes and lines all figured out already and no servos in sight. You showed clearly that you start the line only when you have the servo placed where you want it, cross the articulation between wing and moving surface at a square angle, goes on the to the trailing edge of the moving surface, extend the line on the up side of the moving surface, again at a square angle with/up to the articulation line. The rest is self explanatory in your video. Well done
I really enjoyed this. At the end you said for any F5J situation... I am thinking about this type install for a hollow wing. I like the clean, hidden linkage look.
With your acid brushes, I use those often when using epoxy and fly tying, and have found that trimming the wild fibers off first helps, also, when doing precision epoxy placement like you are doing, I trim the brushes prior to dipping into the epoxy so I can be more precise with less clean up.
Great and wel l detailed explanation - you're the man! However, I did mess up and need a piece of advise: I made the control horns holes too big - because the horns are glued inside the trailing edge I cannot approach them at all. Any suggestions?
@@flightcomp The holes of the control horns were drilled too big (by me). As a result, the metal clevis has too much space. Point is, that the horn is glued in the wing - so I'm pretty desperate there
@@JorgeJimenez2020 so the hole is to large. It’s a 2 step job. First you apply good car wax to control rod. Soft cloth after a good length of time, then repeat next day. The control rod has to be slick. Don’t rush. Second. Insert into hole, exactly at correct placement. Now fill hole with super glue. Liquid works fine. And add Accelerator. This causes super glue to swell and dry. There is a third step- twist the rod between fingers, or with pliers. Because of car wax, the rod is freed and this solution can be used for various thicknesses of horn/other places rod is needing perfect fit.

Thank yo very much!!
That is a super detailed real step by step video.
Great learning material for any modeler, thank you for taking the time to video this!
Thank you sir!
@@flightcomp No! Thank You! 😅😅😅

Great tip, I do this with larger chip brushes for bigger composite work.
Great and wel

I'm not sure what you mean? Are the horns to tall??

Uri Melamed, do you still need a suggestion, I know a good solution.
@@garryperrin2408 please post your solution, happens to all from time to time

Vertigo looks like my dream machine - will they be available again soon?
Not till we clear out the back orders. Lots of people on waiting list.
@@flightcomp No worries, thanks anyway. Really enjoying your videos and getting a lot out of them so thank you for those.
