2-56 pushrods on a 2M ship

[Rcmaster199 at aol.com]

Ed, I often use 2-56 steel threaded material into 1/8"x.070" carbon tubing  
for aileron push rods, or for tail feathers when the servos are mounted back  
there. Good for the typical 2m pattern model.
 
2-56 steel rods alone isn't a good idea if the length is greater than about  
3" or so. I have seen 4" steel rods bend.

What's the word on using 2-56 pushrods on a 2M  sized bird?  I'm thinking of 
doing it to get finer adjustment ability,  but will they hold up?  I'm 
thinking of trying these only on ailerons,  where it's a very short run.
 
Thanks
Ed
