Well I got my hog almost finished up and am installing the servos and push rods and liked the way the Hog Bipe's improvements were that I built so I incorporated some in the AH. Anyway I liked the plastic sleeved push rods so I did the same but instead of having the thicker ones like the Bipe I bought and installed Sullivan goldenrod pushrods # 505 which are blue sleeves and yellow inner rods and sanded them off flush with the sides of the fuselage to look nice and clean like the Bipe. Well problem is that you are not supposed to let the inner rod extend out any farther than an inch out of the outer sleeve and mine both for elevator and rudder are an inch and a quarter or more. So as I was thinking about how to fix this (and it might not be that much of a problem anyway) I was considering inserting and glueing a short piece of piano wire into the inner rod extending into the outlet (of the fuselage)of the outer sleeve to stiffen it up a bit. Anyone see any problems with that? Or I could just go ahead first and set it all up without it first to see if I have too much flex on the rods from deflection resistance. How much is an Astro Hog going to have anyway, its not going to be a 3D model and if all else fails I can fish some wire through and us a pull pull system. What do you think? Looking back I should have used the largest nyrod or golden rod I could by because of the distance from the outlet holes to the control surfaces. Thanks for any comments.
