Default Question About A Rudder Pull-Pull System?

I installed my first pull-pull system on a Aeroworks Edge 540T and I just had a question about how it should be set up. Should the cables that go from the servo to the rudder be really taut or should they be a little looser when in the neutral position? Is there a such thing as too tight or is tighter better? Thanks in advance for your help...

Hi!
The wires should not be tight...no pianowire clang at all ...really they should be as loose you can get them without loosing stearing precision.

Regards!

Taut, but not tight

No slack, but no un-needed strain

Thanks, I had them somewhat taut but then tightened them more, probably could get some sound out of them if I flicked them. I guess I will loosen them up some. Now, when I move the rudder to one side the non-pulling wire gets loose, is this nomal? Not really loose, but it loosens up some and vise versa if rudder is pulled to the other side. Thanks again...

Taut is good and loose on one side when activated is fine. ENJOY !!! RED
