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?
