Whoa there Mr. Hotair. "Near weightless rc sailplane surfaces." Maybe for you when you are flying your Gentle Lady, but for hard core go fast planes, the loads on the servos can be quite high. Craig Toutolmin calculated that the down force on the tail of "Mofo" during his 202 mph. speed run was 90 pounds. Obviously the elevator servo was under a load higher than "near weightless."
