You do not want the slightest chance of that thing moving. The web is not heavy enough. If experts tell us this, it must be a reason.. All you need is two pieces of Aluminum angle, to rest the servo on them with nut plates and screws etc.. I could not do this on My rv6, because wings were already closed before this idean came out... I installed mine under the passager's seat... Tedious job, you have to cut the rib, reinforce the rib,etc...I think the wind is much easier, if you have the room to work in....

Shook" Subject: RE: RV7-List: Trio A/P Servo Mounting I have seen people mount other things on their wing spar web such as terminal blocks, Adel clamps, etc. but I just want to be certain that I am not going to compromise the spar strength by drilling four #6 holes and the eight #40 holes for the nutplates.
