Looking good . What body are you using? Are you running a dig and forced articulation on 1 servo? I gotta see that.

You love the 3 link, I have been running 3 link f/r for a few months and love it. The hardest thing is going to be drilling the hole for rod end and making sure it straight mine is little off, but hasnt effected anything.
