Thanks for that insight. I was just going by the website description.

However, Mod 76 says the Trutrak servo won't fit inside the thigh support
compartment because the D-type connector is at the back of the servo and
will stick out into the tunnel. So for the monowheel this won't work. I am
a bit surprised that the connector cannot be modified somehow. But I don't
have a Trutrak servo on hand to come up with a different plan. Does anyone
have thoughts on this?
