While mixing glue for various mounts, I glued up some wing servo trays. Carf provides milled ply mounts for the servos in the wing.

The aileron servo mounts gets glued to the back of the hatch and the servo is screwed to the mount.

The hardware supplied by Carf is all 3mm heavy duty stuff....

"The usual out of the box pool table shot."

Awww man Paul... I gotta get me a pool table like yours. Every time I've seen it, it's always looked so way much better than anybody elses.

Re: CARF Tucano Turboprop build by PAULD

Hey looks real good Paul. Did you go all out and get the brushless S-bus servos? Did you try any of the programing yet of the servos? Work well, user friendly? At least you will have all the kinks worked out by the time you help Kevin with the Raven.

The wing servos are sbus but not brushless. I did order a pair of brushless sbus servos for the elevator but they're on B.O. Futaba is really backed up on this stuff right now. Rudder servos are old school 9152's but they will be plugged directly into the receiver.

I have done some programming and so far it seems pretty straightforward to me. I should be able to whip up something on the Raven on my 18mz and then transfer it to you.

It's gonna be cool to fully implement this on the sbus. I already have an rpm sensor and turbine batt volt input and am planning to add more telemetry later. Don't want to over do it as you can't look at the screen while you're flying
