There is nothing like a dream to create the future.
Electrickery is the work of the devil.

I'm sure you'll work that one out as speedy as you do your building.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

Would this work, Tony? You'll need to play about with dimensions, to get it sliding freely without slop.
Something similar was made commercially, but I've not seen it for a long time.
ps - I missed off that the two ellipses are slots, one up and down in the fixed portion, and one angled in the slider.

well i have ordered a set to see what they are like.
if they are ok, i will use them for the flaps and then have a re think about the ailerons.
started making the ailerons today, but not got very far with them.

well the ailerons are made now, i need to shape the leading edges and then hinge them ready for fitting.
got to wait and see if these hinge horns i ordered are any good before i can go any further with them.

well, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
spent an age bending wire to make the roof wires, not sure if they are right though.
they look fairly close to the pics i have, i take it the plastic roof panel does not touch them.
if they are ok, i will glue them in tomorrow ans then solder thee center together.
will have to make the trim tab winder to got there as well.
remind me next time to build something less complicated.
