Hi Dave, built up or foam wings and tail?
I have fitted a Hitec HS-225BB mini servo in the tail of my Pat Teakle ASW17 on 4.8v it does the job. I would go for a standard servo, probably with a ball race on the output shaft (the old JR591 running on 4.8volts was always my servo of choice but no longer available unfortunately), Hitec, Savox or similar, like the SG-0351 or SV-0320. 4 to 5kg of torque is more than plenty. High voltage/high torque servos weren't around when Pat was producing these and the standard Futaba 148 was more than adequate and reliable back then.

Nice half scale pilot by the way!

Thanks for the info Andrew, I will be using cnc foam panels.

I would have thought that either of the last 2 servo suggestions would be fine & are
smaller than the original Futaba S148 or S3001 types that Pat would have had available when the model was designed.
The old Futaba standard servos produced around 3Kg/cm torque.
