Default RE: Control Rods, Linkages and Associated Hardware

Peter I recently kitted out two kits with this guys servo arms, horns, linkages etc and have to say they are superb. Made from a high temperature pressure injected carbon filled abs they are unbelievably hard, the servo arms a clever as the ends branch into two so the ball link sits centrally in the end so forces are spread evenly, the horns are the same and as they have a wide base plate and robart style pins they are really simple to install as you only have to drill two holes rather than try to neatly cut a slot.

He has just introduced control rods which are carbon tubes with a special end which are glued in place and these look super as well.

If you want some pictures I can dig out the thread here on RCU where I installed them on my Orion jet.

Highly recommended, any issue is the site is all in German but you can work your way round it with a little patience Good luck with your project.
