Functioning Aileron on Revell 1/32 Me109

[Highflyingmodels]

So for some added fun, I'm modifying Revell's 1/32 Bf109G-10 Erla kit so the control surfaces will operate with the movement of the control stick. First step was to modify the kit's ailerons so that they actually move. Learn how I did this on my website: http://www.highflyingmodels.com/me109-aileron

That's why even though I'm curious I'm not clicking the link. :-)

I know moveable ailerons on kits have been around since the days of Jurassic plastic when Tyrannicanes were dogfighting with Messerdactyls (dogfight double perhaps) and seemed to be a marketing feature at the time. Would a moveable aileron be really worth the effort on a static model, or am being cynical as usual?

Well I clicked the link and the OP has done some very impressive work. The page to which he links is very detailed and would take a lot of time (and site bandwidth!) to post here, so I do think a link was appropriate.

Moveable ailerons are not unusual but planning to control them with a 1/32 joystick is impressive in my book.

I really enjoyed reading about how he did it - and I picked up some ingenious tips along the way.
