MVC-364F.JPG (58862 bytes) This is the method I used to ensure that the center points of the swivel connectors on the connecting rods were the exact same distance apart as the rudder servos.
MVC-366F.JPG (63537 bytes) After finding the correct length for the connecting rods, I then assembled the servo arms using a new servo wheel, but without the holes drilled to connect the arms to the wheel.  After carefully aligning everything and clamping it to hold it in place, I marked the locations of the holes.  I drilled a 1/16" pilot hole to make sure I had drilled correctly, then finished drilling them with a 3/32 bit.
MVC-368F.JPG (76061 bytes) I then used a straight edge to ensure that the swivel connector centers were in line with the center point of the servo gear.  After carefully aligning everything and clamping it to hold it in place, I marked the locations of the holes.  I drilled a 1/16" pilot hole to make sure I had drilled correctly, then finished drilling them with a 3/32 bit. I then hooked everything back up and the results appear to be pretty good.
