The Extreme DS is set up so the elevator servo goes inside the fin, making the linkage about 1 1/2" long. There's room in there for a 5125 or a DS168. I don't know if a WingMaxx would fit or not.

It has been some talking that the fastest DS performed was with a Hitec 5125 on the elevator.... So I might have used mine wrong.. :-O 262mph by Kyle Paulson with a 2m Extreme is pretty cool.
