    Does anyone have diagrams or links relating to the elevator linkage assembly on planes that have a t-tail design like the OV-10 Bronco? Thanks

    I don't have a diagram, but my Cularis glider has a semi-T tail with a full flying stab. It uses a 90 degree bellcrank to transfer the motion. I could whip up a quick sketch if you need it.

    After hours of reading about t-tails, I've decided I would keep it simple and just put the elevator servo at the rear of the boom. Then just use a single pushrod up to the elevator.
