I have just finished building an Eagle 2 trainer and I'm ready to install the servos, receiver, push rods, etc.
My question is this --- the plans call for a 1/16" dia. pushrod for controlling the throttle and the nose gear. Both push rods are supposed to run through nylon guide tubes (probably because both of these particular push rods need to bend a fair amount). Is it better to go with the flexible type of push rods that are more like the cables on a bike? Its an added expense, but it would seem to me that they would be easier to install and not put as much load on the servos (which also means the battery won't be 'working' as hard.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
