40% DHC-2 Beaver Part I

The legendary DHC-2 Beaver is a radio controlled airplane scaled down to 1:2.5. It has a wingspan of 5,85 m / 230 inches and weighs 82 kg / 180 lb. It is made fully of aluminum. Great care was taken that every rivet and aluminum part is a scaled down version of the original. 12.000 rivets hold the airplane together. Powered by a 5 piston radial engine with 23 hp. First flight was on 26th of September 2007.

at aprox $219 each servo from what i've found so your saying 2 per control surface 2x aliron, 2x elevator, 2x rudder and if 2 per control surface are we talkin 4x flaps 2 left 2 right side? Total 10 servo's $2200 for servo's alone? Feel free to clarify because thats crazy lol. Maybe im not understanding your comment but 2 per control works out to what i've posted
