Default RE: Angel S EVO Build Thread

I was also able to get the stab glued, the elevator and rudder hinges glued, horns mounted, elevator and rudder servos mounted, pull-pull cables run and the elevator hardware installed. The hardware is a little odd for me, ball jointed clevises with a long screw, washer and nut to hold them to the horn, I haven't seen anything quite like it before. My worry is always with small nuts coming off, you can of course CA them but many times the CA gets into the linkage someplace and makes it all stiff. I am still considering replacing the wing and elevator rods with good old fashioned 4-40, metal clevises and a carbon tube over the threaded rod...
