Attention Fred Klein .
Whilst I am not wishing to "enter the fray" about the issue of connectors it
occurs to me having looked at your photo of your servo and the plastic
clevises to ask if you have shortened them before connecting them with the
piece of threaded rod? You are headed for some hassle if you haven't,
since you won't get enough trim through the operating range of the
Stabilators without the bottom clevis fouling up on the operating lever at
the end of the travel range.. ( I think that was the best description of the
problem but check it out Fred before you close it up with the top on!)

Bob Harrison G-PTAG

I am interested in what is the correct or preferred connector for the small
wires in the RayAllen Servo wire bundles etc., the small dia cabling of many
devices. I'm sure there are some better than others, but I currently don't
know any, albeit a ACS catalogue could narrow it down. So far, I have tried
D sub terminals, as they are easy to get and easy to solder. Should I stick
with them??
Tony.At that stage of the build, I was not comfortable w/ using D sub
terminals and questioned my ability to disconnect them w/ one hand.I used
this AMP connector w/ the larger, crimped pins.I also floxed the nuts on the
back face of the bulkhead which hold the servo in position, though I'd use
nut plates were I to do it again.Fred
