    I'm rethinking my earlier comment. Most (3D planes at least) designs keep the servo in towards the root edge of the wing because the forces will be stronger there due to the larger aileron size closer to the fuse.

    Andy, I think this was a good choice...sounds like the initial location was way too far out on the wing. Looks like you'v got it in a better location and very strong. Nicely done! Also, the rest of the build pics are awesome. Can't wait to see the flight videos!

    Noll, it sounds like he broke the internal wing tube saddle (the shell in which the CF wing tube sits).

    This is your first scratch build? wow...coming along nicely! I have used wax paper and it works just fine...never tried press'n'seal, always used wax paper.

    Lesson learned: Bullet connectors

    I've recently started switching all my planes to Anderson Power Poles...really like how these go together. But I also agree that direct solder is probably the most reliable way.
