This is not my invention but something I came across on the Tube.
I can't do better then offer the YOUTUBE video that shows it working and some drawings I have made to show how it works.
The idea, like many good ideas is very simple. It creates an aerilon or flap actuator that doesn't use push rods.
The Stiff wire is bent at 45 Deg at the end and encased with a close fitting plastic lid top and bottom. As the rod is rotated the movement of the bent end is transmitted to the aerilon. This allows the aerilon servo to be embedded in the wing and the mechanism totally hidden enhancing scale reality.
