Completing the left elevator. Is it adviseable to install the servo at this time or do it later?

I think thats up to you to be honest. Many people have retro-fitted them after the plane was flying so it can be done at either time. If it were me though I think I would do it now.

That could be a good question to ask in the forums!!

DOH, for some reason I thought I was reading a PM. Sorry guys. Maybe I should take a nap or something.

I installed mine when I built the elevators. I don't see a reason not to. I can mask off or remove the pushrod when it comes time to paint the plane. It's fun! It feels good to be doing something at this point in the build other than the usual deburring, dimpling, priming, etc.
