Default RE: Chip Hyde's Cap-X - Building & Flying

I'm getting ready to hinge the wing and I'm already thinking about mounting the radio... Anyway, I'm going with the carbon fiber pushrod setup from Central Hobbies - http://www.centralhobbies.com/contro...e/carbrod.html

Has anyone had problems with pulling the titanium rod out of the carbon fiber sleeve? I see lots of people run threaded rod through the center, but I'm not sure why. Is it to be safe, or is it because the titanium rod can come loose? I'm going to use the JB Weld, which I know is very strong.
