Leave space behind the easy connector for it to slide back when it's engaging the opposite rudder but add a brake spring from a RC nitro car to keep tension on the rudder when closed and you have a poor man's setup for a drag rudder system. :)
PS don't forget to solder the joint of the pushrods as well for extra security.Warbird Charlie

Oh sorry and no these don't these are just outboard rudder systems. Single servo. For what you want I would think you could have a spring loaded surfaces that can be switched activated. and would require two separate servos. I have no doubt can be created to work together as you could run the stock servo as your ailerons and set this system up mid surface and open and close them the same way, using the spring to keep them closed yet will still actuate as ailerons. That would be my idea on that. Because if I had given them that second servo operation I know the rudders would do that as well

Thanx for the close up RM, gives me an option. Won't know more whether decelerons will be an achievable mod until I actually have the beast in hand.Warbird Charlie
