Default RE: Z bend



Personally I don't use the EZ connectors because I had a bad exerience with them. I had one come loose in flight, and the only thing that saved the plane was a blob of epoxy that was on the pushrod. It was the elevator and the blob gave me just enough up control to actually get the plane back on the ground. And since then I haven' t used them. But I will conceded that I didn't use thread lock on them either. So I'm not saying to not use them, but if you do use them make sure you use threadlock on them and get them very tightly secured.</p>
