Thanks rj!
He does when I hook up the rudder-shaft connection. I built it with the model tiller post right over the actual one and a tube connection to turn the rudder. I now leave it off to lessen the load on the servo as it's a bit stiff with the steering rod going through a tube through the cockpit. My later magpies have a shallower cockpit and the rod goes underneath.
I don't think any question is strange. I ask some "unusual "ones myself at times. (Often!) BTW I only hobby build them and made the moulds for fun.
