    @srduval agreed - quite a few of my planes use them. I've found it to be tricky to use them for moving control surfaces - but does work well when you crack it. All the best

    Thanks. @ahappyape I like playing with the rotator parts, adds a really neat aspect to the designs. Who ever came up that was a genius.

    Not sure this has the pitch response @ahappyape wants ;-), but its closer and adjusting the angle change of the tail might help. again speed is an issue, get below 350 and it will be unstable in tight turns
