Default GP Reactor 46

Hi,

I know it's discontinued but the GP Reactor 46 has been my favorite cheap hack for the longest time. I know the plane quite well so when the opportunity came to flying at a demo meet in February, I decided to resurrect my landing gear-less old model with a new fuse & tailset. I was flying the old one with an OS Fs91. So couple of questions-

Though the Fs91 has plenty of pullout, the Fs110a I have has much more power. In the last season I was hovering a 3.7kg airplane with the 110 with good pullout.Crucially, it's lighter than the 91. The Reactor is lighter too. Should I use the 110 on it?

Secondly, I wanted more positive connections on the new reactor, so I used ball links both sides on Sullivan full-thread 2-56 SS pushrods. But someone told me those are prone to snapping. Is that correct?
