Thanks for the info W8ye...I ended up putting larger z bends where they exit the fuse in the back and all seems good...I don't like the wood rod setup but seems to work ok...Plus it don't seem like there is alot of other options since it is an ARF and I can't really get into the fuse...
Thanks
If you really don't like the wood rods then replace them with plastic outer, and metal inner like these.

It's really not that hard to do even on an ARF. The outer plastic only needs to be attached at both ends. I always use CA and make sure to roughen the plastic area where they are going to be glued with sandpaper.
