Your mention of the machined aluminum mechanism reminded me of a plane
called the Ultra, or Ultra GP by George's Models.  When I saw it at the IMS
show a long time ago, it had these really cool machined control arms, along
with a somewhat odd, squarish shaped molded glass fuselage with lots of
wild colors molded in.  I notice that it actually appears in my old 94-95
NSP catalog.  It mentions the "coaxial" wing actuaters, but says plane is
wingeron, not pitcheron (though I suppse there's no reason why you couldnt
make it pitcheron).  Sounds similar to what you are describing though.
