I already went ahead with the original pulley idea behind the torque rod. It's working fine. The only trouble was finding the right pulley.

I bought an assortment of small plastic pulleys at a local science shop. I found that pulleys smaller than 1/4" in diameter are too small for Du-Bro's nylon coated pull-pull cables (permanently kinks the cables). Pulley's larger that 1/4" are too big to fit into the cramped space at the tail. I tried to fit in my only 1/4" pulley, but it was a little too thick. So I tried to grind it thinner with the Dremmel tool and then ruined it enough so that I would not trust it in flight. I still used it to fit together and try the system. I will be replacing it with a custom made aluminum pulley that at friendly club member is making for me next weekend.

I have pictures of the system with the plastic pulley, if anyone is interested.

CPILCHARD: That is a good idea, but a little to late. I probably would have used your idea instead. But thanks anyway.
