Today I was in a creative mood, and because I received my servo I bought for my carbsmart yesterday thats what I've been installing.

First of all, the ingredients:

Futaba 3150:

Frame spacers:

A crashdamaged carbon tailfin (the vertical one):

And a little bit of balsa for the servo mounting:

Now its time to get out the saw and cut some stuff away from the crashed fin. After that I glued the balsa servo mounts to the carbon tailfin, creating a servo mount.

When its ready I used some longer M3*25 bolts together with the frame spacers to mount the servo to the frame.

And last but not least I connected the servo rod, also from the R90.

I hope this is usefull to someone else mounting his carbsmart! Now I just have to order some new sensors because I already killed my first one...

Looks nice. I just used a 600n plate and screwed it to the fan shroud. Now I gota get my carbsmart. Lol. Spent my money on a omi moded cspec and a used 600 as the deals looked too good to pass. Um I need help dont I? LOL

I crashed my R90 2 weeks ago, and this was one of the few things that survived.
