Default Anyone Flying a Magic Extra Yet?

TOMAPOWA.......

I bought the Dubro quick links. 2-56, you used. Boy, are those things slick! Unfortunately, the supplied control rods ARE NOT 2-56, but slightly smaller. The Dubro links will thread on, but are not tight, and if threaded on about half way in, it doesn't take much effort to yank the the rod out of the link. I'm wondering if blue loctite would fill the gaps in the threads enough to make them usable. They are SO much better than the cheapies supplied, however, the supplied quick links thread on much tighter.

How about a poll.....which quick links are everone using on there Magic Extras???


One more thing, would NORMAL solder work for joining the two elevator rods, or must it be silver solder, in case I decide to replace the supplied control rods with Dubro 2-56?
