Default RE: pull-pull setup for pattern

Way back.....my EMCs used pulleys on both the servo and rudder ends.....looks cool....works....no real advantage in practice. Since I started flying Wistmodel stuff, I use the horns they supply....slight ackerman on the servo end.

Recently, I switched from the servo end shown by Vince to clevises on both ends...because I was breaking cables after 200-300 flights as they frayed on the servo arm. Lots more pressure and wear on cables now than when the 2M stuff was smaller.

Regards,

Dave

Just in case. If you need to make it simpler and save some weight you could thread the wire as shown in the picture.
