I use ez connectors on a lot of things but still like the main controls to have more solid connectors (elev / ailerons ). I think where people got the idea that they weren't the best to use was from a few years ago ( 15 or so ) when some of the imported stuff was using a very soft wire for the control rods. When tightening the ez connector down it would flatten the rod some then in time would loosen up as the rod was soft and wouldn't hold up. ENJOY !!! RED
