Default VP dig in a Wraith

I've got my VP AX10 tranny, Super Shafty top shaft mod, and my VP dig installed in my Wraith.

Just wondering what everyone is using for a servo arm and linkage on the dig servo. I'm using a Hitec servo. I'm going to try the blue aluminum servo arm that came with my servo - probably drill out one of the holes to fit a 3mm screw.
What's being used for the linkage between the servo arm and the VP dig arm?

Thanks!

Just use whatever fits. Two rod ends with a set screw is usually a very simple method.

That's what I've got going on now. Just wondered if there was something better. Maybe a bit smaller than the 2 Wraith rod ends.

Thanks Harley!

I made a piece out of a piece of 1/8" delrin, but it's more difficult for the same outcome.

Here's a couple quick pictures

Yeah, I like that!!! Maybe I can talk one of the tooling guys, here at work, into doing something like that for me!
