CH601XL installation of servo

[mhubel]

Are there any recommendations on the installation of the servos in a Zenith CH601XL? Would any of the existing installation kits be of value even if they require modification. They may be better than starting from scratch.

Hi,
Please find attached zip file with pictures of my Zodiac XL with Dynon servos installed. It works very well for me.

I had a TruTrak roll servo before, so the Dynon servo dropped right in to the same bracket and arm.
Pitch was a little more tricky, but once I found a good place it was quick.

With the pitch SV32, I started with torque at 20%. With the roll, I'd suggest starting with torque at 75 or 80% (hingeless ailerons).

Cheers,

Thanks, There are some good suggestions included here.

I may still investigate using the RV6 "roll" kit as it seems that it may almost drop in for one axis.
