HK control linkage
 
Hi there!

Have you used these ball bearing links and horns from Hobby-king??
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...mm_5sets_.html
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s..._5_10pcs_.html
Do you know what type of pushrod they use?

I've been using Robart super horns and dubro ball links, but they develop some serious slop after 1 year of use...


Thanks for the info!



Saludos,
Jean Paul

The only complaints I have about their BB clevis is that they don't include the spacer that goes between the bearing face and the control horn. MK used to include a metal spacer then they went to a plastic one. My first order from HK had a plastic spacer but later orders had no spacer at all.
