[NSRCA-discussion] Speaking of Troy and NMP dual Axis rod ends

[John Konneker]

Has anyone else seen Troy's blog over on the Central Hobbies website?
Good stuff!
And yes...that was a shameless plug for one of the K-Factor advertisers.
But hey!
I'm the ad manager!

The trick with NMP links is not to overtighten the screw thru the ball.  The ball will compress slightly and cause them to bind if you do.  They include a lock nut, so there is no need to overtighten them.  I'm using them on the servo end of my rudder pull/pull on a couple of planes, and they work well and don't wear.  I had the same issues until Troy Newman told me the trick.  I like them as they are very light.

I,would second that. I have about 8 ea still in the package, spend the extra money and
buy the MK  2mm or 4/40 ball links.--- On Mon, 7/28/08, Stuart Chale <schale at optonline.net> wrote:

I bought a bunch of them but found them to be too tight and not re-sizable like heli ball links.I do not think I would buy them again.Stuartkirksutherland at bellsouth.net wrote: 

Has anyone used the NMP dual axis rod ends( Ball Links) that Central sells ?
 
What do you think of them ,and are they slop free at the joint between the plastic and the ball  and will they stay  slop free?   I have always used Dubro but they develope play quickly. Any advise would be great.
 
Thanks Kirk
