Default RE: Composite pushrods.

This is true, they are basically Gol-N-Rods filled with CF, ,So they are Nylon with a twist. Apparently the level of CF in them is low enough that they don't give any RF interference, so I can run my antenna inside the fuse. They are soft like nylon, so I know they won't split like a stiff cf rod. They are already installed, and I didn't think of this until after the fact. I am afraid i am going to damaged them if I try to take them apart. This is one of those, "Well, you could glue them, but I don't think they need it" things.
These are supposed to be an in between compromise to cf and nylon, flexible yet strong. I'll have to email Sullivan and ask them to make sure.
