I installed the roll servo forward of spar all the way to the right. Connecting to the control stick it seems that a problem would exist because the roll has both pitch and roll connected to the rod arm. Has anyone flown this setup and are there any issues?


I've flown this exact installation for hours with no issues at all. That includes auto pilot commanded climbing and descending turns.
