Where are you getting your servos from?

  I like most everything about the Velocity design except for the pitch and
roll trim.  So I am finally doing something about it.  I am installing tiny
trim servos in the elevator and one aileron and outfitting them with piano
hinged trim tabs.  The wires will be run inside the torque tubes.  I am
happy to be eliminating that clunky linear activator and the cumbersome
fiberglass trim spring on the canard and the string & spring roll trim.



  Anyone else ever do this?



  BTW – I have forgotten to post the paint designs I promised 
 but it’s
been difficult to get my graphic artist to send me the digitals.  All I have
now are large print-outs.  They should be coming soon.
