To post pictures on this forum you need to host them somewhere else. Photobucket is popular, there are other sites that are similar.
Then you need to post a link in the forum (use the URL button at the top of the message editor). Please don't post big pics directly onto the forum. Small pics are OK, but it's easier just to link them.

Looks very nice and obviously a lot of design and thought gone into it. It will be interesting to see the all up weight. I have in the past used two seperate drums on either end of a double ended motor but have had to make it a walker for the extra weight limit. I have been toying with the idea of a long drum and have bought a couple of small brushless motors to mount at each end. That will have to be a walker and I am not yet sure if I can run both brushless from one controller. All this will have to wait until I finish my kitchen and a few mods to defiant and maybe another look at pnuematics. Looks like another busy year.

The only way to stop the servos from turning, is to solder the pot off and solder two 2.2K resistors instead.

On smaller servos you need the pot as the output gear is resting on it, so it might be a tight fit.

cant you adjust the trims on the tx and glue the pot in place on te servo and boar out the bit in the servo that grips the pot
