Default RE: installing a pull -pull cable to my rudder..

Nogyro, you have helped confirm my claim about the longevity of our Giant Scale Airplanes. I have an R&R Snapper that I built from plans that I have been flying for one helluva long time, I can't remember when I built it maybe as long as 6 yrs. I built it with a pull-pull on the rudder, using yellow ny-rods for the cables, have been using this setup on all my GS planes with one servo. Most of my planes have used a single S148 Futaba servo. I will say, the Snapper is not a very high performance aircraft, unlike the 27% to 30% Extras and Edges. The Snapper has a Quadra 52 on the nose turning an 18-8X14 Zinger 6500 rpm. The rudder has been the least of my problems, radios, dumb thumbs, and brain locks have been more trouble than the rudder.

Just my 2 pennys! LOL!!
