Attaching clevises to carbon fiber
I want to use carbon fiber control rods (1/8" ) on my current build, and having never used them before, I have no idea how to attach the clevis assembly to each end. Glue, epoxy, bird poop and spit? Need a little help here!

RE: Attaching clevises to carbon fiber
Purchased the carbon fiber rod, 2-56 hardware and black rubberized CA here. Any 2-56 control rod material will do the trick. Rough up the ends you glue into the carbon fiber rod for better adhesive grip.
Unless said bird is pooping CA or epoxy, I'd not recommend using it as an adhesive.
