When I built my elevator, I set it up with two tabs, and linkage to provide
anti-servo action.  I have perceived from all the comments that pitch
sensitivity is to some degree related to stick force and feedback.  My
arrangement (not flown) allows either tab, both tabs, or none to provide
this response.

I haven't said much about this because of the "not flown" factor, but I have
seen it on others, such as the neat little two place built by the Micosukee
Indians.  I noticed that the KR1004K write-ups mention that Ken had included
eelevator anti-servo in the design, but I didn't see much discussion in the
flight test comments.

My first airplane (Ron's 1) was basically neutrally stable, but not pitch
sensitive.  I flew it a long time, and it's still flying.  If I had it back,
I would build a bigger Stabilizer/Elevator.  Well, it's been flying since
'72, so maybe not too bad.
