What's the pot life once you mix the 2 components?

About 10 hours at room temperature. Three days in the frig.

Till what viscosity do you add thinner? Almost water-like?

Small sidenote, on my reference pictures i often see the interior of the newer soviet ssn's in reddish orange and on follow-on pictures of the RusFed era in blue. Though i am not sure if the housings for the masts are colored, too.

Do you spray it right out of the fridge or let it warm to room temp? Does it thicken substantially in those 3 days? And as Jhapprich noted do you thin it to a certain visco?

Nope.

Gobs of thinner.

What advantage does the bellcrank give you over using direct actuation? Is just that you didn't have room to turn the servos 90 degrees in the WTC?

Yes, I could only fit these little 'microbe' sized linear servos with travel athwartship, hence the need for bell-cranks to translate the output to a longitudinal one.

Hobbyist who convert 1/64 Hotwheels/Matchbox cars use these 1.7gm servos in lieu of those linear servos..
