RE: To pushrod or not to pushrod?
I used the Troy Newman / Central Hobbies dual elevator pushrod system (DEPS) on my CA Model Epsilon pattern plane with very good results. With a threaded control horn on each elevator half, it was easy to adjust throws on each side so that they matched perfectly. Extremely light, no slop, keeps weight out of the tail section. Does take a bit of effort the first time to do it right.
