Default DG-300 or LS-3?

Are you sure the LS3 has auto hookups? On everything?

Darryl -

I know, I didn't realize it either back when I was researching my
first ship. But from the DG website:
"The LS3 has automatic connections of the ailerons, the flaps and the
air brakes"

(My research & photo-study revealed that this is because the one-piece
flaperons were driven at the root by pins sticking out from the
fuselage)

The LS-3a (which split the flaperon into separate flaps and ailerons)
requires manual control connections.
