:lol: Yes maybe but my story only took a few minutes.

1. Shorter horns would give limited 'grip' for the heatshrink and
2. Shorter horns would result in MORE elevator movement than needed and I would have to dial down the throw using travel limits, and this would reduce my resolution

So the elevators were removed and a couple of mm cut from the ends in order to increase the gap. With hindsight, only 1mm was needed

Hi Mike, did you settle on 8mm horns for both elevator and ailerons? And will you do the same on the Acro, or maybe go longer on the ailerons?

Go longer if you can

I think I've got to be careful with what I say and write! On Sunday when looking for oil for Chris's van in Mitch's car, I said "That's a big clock", Jon thought I said something else, and seemed to get all insecure, saying something about the cold and... well lets not go there. For those that have not had the pleasure of looking inside Mitch's car, there is a huge clock wedged in the foot well of the front passenger seat.

Anyway, thank you Mike for the photos, much obliged to you sir, now that you've shredded what little reputation I had left :pinch:

Mike, your third email! What good deal were you offered with a virgin?

Dave your post reminds me of an interview with Ringo Starr, he was saying how John Lennon had shown him the album artwork for "Two Virgins" and the only thing he could think to say was "Oh, you've even got the Times in it..."
