TruTrak Autopilots

 

Here are some pictures showing how I'm installing the 2-axis TruTrak autopilot servos in the Falco. Installation was very simple and only required minimal spruce structure to be added to solidly secure the servo-brackets I fabricated. Both servos are connected by a push-pull connecting rod with rod-end-bearings. The aileron AP servo connecting rod's rod-end-bearing, which is connected to the right side control stick, provides sufficient swivel to easily accommodate the elevator's fore-aft and rotational movement.
