The MAC S9 (aka RAC T4) weighs 2.5 oz and the rest of the bits required to do 
the job weigh under an ounce. The servo sits just on the CofG of the aileron so

the impact on balance is minimal. You just have to remember to have the servo 
fitted when you are doing the final balance. I suspect that Bob Jacobson's 
model servo method came in about the same weight or even lower. Of course Bob 
just happens to have a ready supply of model servos to hand!
