Very nice! Still digging the scale scheme and lines! But for some reason that tiny spinner on that huge prop made me think of Chris Farley for some reason.

Got the elevators done. With this setup my servo arm moves 55 degrees each way from the TBD center, so that my elevators move 48 degrees up and down on the AW throw meter. My radio end points are set to 130/130. So, I have pretty much maximum resolution. I used the 1-1/2" hole location on the servo arm because with only one elevator servo per half I wanted to be at least somewhat conservative. I can get more throw, up to 60 degrees or more. But, I'd want to install two more servos for that. We'll see how it goes.

BTW, I worked on my throttle linkage a bit and now my radio end points are set to 135/135 for the throttle servo... max resolution and proportionally linear curve. :)

I soldered on the PAD to the Dean's connector along with the servo lead:

This grommet works out to be a nice keeper for the elevator extension. I had to remove it, then squeeze it to get the Dean's connector through. Then re-install it. After that the Dean's connector cannot fall back through it. Sweet. :)
