Hi,

I am in the UK and want to buy some of the CH metal ball raced control horns / clevises. Ufortunately Central Hobbies will not supply direct to the UK anymore, and Probuild are pricey to say the least. So doesn anyone here know another source of these horns / clevises who will export to the UK ?

Thanks,

Boo

I can't say if they will ship to the UK or not but I know of twp places that sell them

Try Bobby, at [email protected] <[email protected]> is where I got mine.

I also know that Radio South sells them try Tony at [email protected]

Regards,

Eric.

P.S. I have had good results using about 18 of them. I use their clevice or half of the Mk horn-clevice.

(Just added a couple of pic's).

Eric,

How thick is the hard plate you installed under the control horns ?

Thanks, the UK does appear on the drop-down country list on Cactus' order page so I've put in an order and hopefully all will be well.

Dos this mean that they are shipped with the clevises shown on the Cactus site : <http://www.cactusaviation.com/Produc...horns.html> ? If so then will they accept an M3 threaded rod as the pushrod or are they an imperial size dyk ?

Cheers,

Boo

Radio South also has them

Q. Hard plate and clevise.

1/8" ply. The horn is secured using three 3/8" metal screws. Chip Hyde showed me how best to do it when I was reviewing his Double Vison. You drill three pilot holes. Then apply CA, thin or medium, to the triangular area between the screws. Then you screw the horn in place. I have tried to remove a horn fixed this way. It took an Xacto chisel-blade and swift blows from a hammer.

The Clevise can be tapped for 2.5-mm to 3-mm or 4-40. It is a hard-poly-carbon'y type of stuff... (Not very technical I know - sorry). The pin is a stepped screw that has to be removed with a small phillips driver and tyen replaced to actually fit the clevise.

I did fit a pair, back to back, with bolts to act as a pull-pull rudder horn. And one as a single rudder horn

Were can I get the metal pushrods in the pictures above?
Thanks
Eli
