1.5 hrs on the pitch servo and 1.5 hrs general cleanup and organizing.

Pushrod off to move the connection on the pitch servo to the bottom hole.

Proved to be a bit difficult to get the bolt out.  But, with a little shove from a screw driver it came out.

Turned out it was easier to tighten the bolt using a long extension on a ratchet than try and use the wrench on the other side (not much space).  I was even able to properly torque it with the extension.

And it's done!

Trying to figure out the order of assembly with regards to the center console and its upholstery.  Time is ask the factory for clarification.

The manual says the elevator pushrod gets put in through the rear, but I was hoping I could put it in through the front given how the fuselage is positioned in my garage.  Well, it's possible!  Assuming the side skin is off that is.
A little jiggling around and it went all the way back.  Nice!  I understand some grease needs to be applied to the pushrod where it passes through the plastic part a few ribs back (It makes a lot of noise with no grease...).
