Default Funtana nylon clevis pulled out!

While flying my Funtana yesterday the stock nylon clevis on the left aileron pulled completely out of the stock horn when performing a full throttle snap roll. What would you do after this happened?? Well, I did the same thing. I reinstalled the clevis and went flying! Within about two minutes the clevis again pulled out when I did a parachute. Both times I landed without incident. BTW, I'm using Futaba 9001's @ 6 volts.

I now plan to install Du-bro ball links at the servo arm and steel clevises with keepers at the horn. I will keep the stock horn for now.

Just want to post my problem for all of you who are using the stock hardware.
