Great one. All the best
All the best ... :hatsoff:
Elevator
The servo mounts on the Horizontal Stab were all pretty straight forward stuff. Mount the servos, center them and install the aluminum arms with blue locktite on everything. I used Secraft 2" JR Aluminium Arms. I paid careful attention to tying back the wires so they would never interfere with the arm movement. The servo cut-outs fit the JR 8911 servos perfectly.
Servo and Linkage
Okay So here are some more updates on Build.
Under Carriage
Tail Wheel Assembly
Rudder Servo Installation
All are Pretty straight forward as well as easier to work with because of utmost quality.
Fuselage is almost 150% Bigger then other standard 50-70cc Models but stands with the lighter construction.
Rudder
Rudders are always a little tricky and this one was no different.
I've Used the 3.5Inch Secraft Aluminium arm with 120% Travel as it needs 4".
But you wont be required not more than 45 Degrees of throws on this one for both precision and 3D.

Wings
Again, all the normal stuff. Hit the area around the servo holes with a trim iron, cut out the covering and install the servos. Center and add arms. I used Secraft 2" Aluminium Arms, With Push Rod installed on 1.75" & 120% Travel.
