Default Tail struts/rigging--RF interference???

I am trying to come up with a way to utilize the piles of extra pieces around here to come up with a set of struts for the tail of my CA Extra 1/4 scale. If I were to use metal pushrods with soldered on metal clevises, then used screws into the hardwood dowels I have already installed, would the metal to metal contact of the screws and clevises create RF interference????? I'm not sure what the clevises are made of (probably steel), the screws are zinc plated.

I thought about using some good nylon clevises, but if the pushrods arent threaded, how can I attach them to the pushrod??? JB weld???

I also thought I could put a tiny bit of threadlock on the screw and clevis to keep them from vibrating loose.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks!
Dave
