That servo makes way more sense than the cable set up too.

Did you get that broken cowl piece sorted out?

Hey Stephan, good to hear from you. Im hoping this paint holds up better then the previous attempt. My test panel showed real promise but it also had a few months to cure...
I think Capo may have realized they over engineered the cable steering set up. Its just not strong enough. Probably why Ken sent me the chassis mounted bracket for free.
Ken ended up sending me two replacement cowl peices, the first got bent just as bad as the first one, most likely during shipping. The second time he shipped it in a box. It was slightly bent, but not enough to where i couldnt massage it back into shape. All is good now!
