I'm not sure I'd dare try the crazy snap reversal around 0:36 but I'd love to know if it works on the real Quark!

I tried it today - it does indeed work on the real thing!
Fred:
Now, that's nice!! :)
DannyChapman:
Next will be to try the mad-snap:

I tried this on my Phase 6 earlier in the year and it mostly worked - even though the elevator throw on the P6 is quite tame (I had my keychain cam on it... recording... but with the lens cap on grrr!). Not quite sure the Quark would take the stress - certainly I'd want to reinforce the hole in the elevator crank as it's rather near the top - closer on mine than this one:
Fred:
HHmmm, on top of my head, I think someone did the modification a while back. I'll try to find the photos etc.
Alternatively, I 3D printed a couple of bellcranks as a test, and they are not bad at all (although, I never broke the plywood one, even after some "rough" landings :-[ )
PM me your address, and I can send you one in an envelope :)
