A collection of gg actuator examples from our museum collection.

Just in case you haven't noticed, the Rand on the left with the black rudder plate is one of Tobes , very early 3D printed Rands. A worthy addition to the collection.

Hi Shaun
All of those are familiar and make sense with the exception of what appears to be a modified Climax Servomite. May we have a photo of the mechanism that is hidden by the top cover ?

It was a modified Climax reed servo sold by REP. Not very powerful but clever.

As it's the only one I have in the museum collection and the plastic is brittle I don't want to risk damage so it will have to remain a mystery until I get another one.
