| Parts. The side plates will be profiled after everything is test assembled. I wish to be able to disassemble the whole thing later to help facilitate repairs. In the past I've built all the radio gear and "Monkey Motion" into the model permanently and regretted it later. |

| Rough Bellcranks. I will reinforce the disc mount with wrapped carbon tow to create fillets. |

| "Monkey Motion". Although I have computer design software, figuring out geometries is pretty darn fun this way too. The green pins are stationary hinge points and the yellow are move. #1 is the push-rod from the servo. #2 is the Bellcrank and #3 in the connecting rod to the wing pin, The crosshatch area is the movement I am after. |
