Does anybody see a problem using this system on a AA type plane with large
elev. surfaces, will it be ridged enough, this is on a ZN Majestic that
turned out tail heavy, original set up was with mini Digital's in the tail
but I need to move everything to the front in order to have it balance and
remain under 11lbs. Would a pull pull work out better due to the long span
from the nose to its tail, or maybe go up one size with the solid carbon
rod?

" Have since shifted to the
carbon fiber nyrods as they allow the use of threaded fittings and don't
rely on the glue joints."

Regards.

Dave, where can I see/purchase these at, I have used the nylon rods in
smaller planes but never seen carbon fiber nyrods, is the center rod solid
and how flexible are they?

Thanks everybody!!!
