Strange that no one has the 9X in stock locally ?  This should be an "AHA" moment for LHSes !   A clear indication that even if they bring in 100s, they would all get sold eventually and fairly quickly.

Yeah.. i checked all the warehouses... US.. local... but all back oreder

Hi guys, Is the elevator servo mounted correctly ? when i mounted from outside, the servo frame length was matching the canopy mount rod, so the canopy wont fit, also   today i tried to mount from inside,, is this ok?

This is Correct way to install
