Wing Servos and Canopy Latch

Just when you thought I was done.

The wing servos are pretty standard, I’m using Hitec 5945 dig. The servo frames are a new item. There from Germany and Craig Greening is the US distributor at http://www.servoframes.com/ these are for JR but you can modify to fit Hitec. I really like these because you can easily remove the servo.

On to the Canopy Frame, the latch and pull are made from a latch you can get at Hobby Lobby.
