Hi,
1) I'm installing a DHS pull/pull rudder in my RC Guys Decathelon. I've never done a p/p and not sure how you go about adjusting the cables after installing.

There will be threaded eyes on either end of the Kevlar cables and one end has a ball link, the other will go to a Hangar 9 swivel clevis horn on the rudder.

How do you get tension on the cables? I assume you can't just turn the threaded eyes, as this would twist the cables. Do you detach the ball link from the servo arm, adjust, and then reattach it?
