Default RE: Reaction 54 Jet Kit

Let me start out by asking the first question for Jeff. I modified the wing servo installation on my R54 so that the servos are completely inside the wing. Now the question, I can use a completely straight pushrod for the flaps and ailerons by extending the servo arm out through a slot in the servo hatch cover or I can conceal the arm inside the wing by putting a slight bend in the push rod. This being my first jet, I don't know if bending the push rod is taboo. They will be 4-40 rods with metal clevises. Actually it is more critical for the aileron than the flaps since the aileron requires push and pull, while the flap is only pull. Opinoins are welcome.
