Title: Elevator pushrod
Post by: Flyguyeddy on September 08, 2017, 04:28:24 AM
 I was hoping people to post some pictures of elevator pushrod set ups or link me to some.  Sam buchanon's site is long gone  and those were the only pictures that I know of.

What size tube for the pushrod? What size fittings? Idler arm in the middle somewhere?

There are a few pictures of my setup in the builders log section on this forum (Paul's CE build).
They were incomplete in those pics but the complete setup is the same. The plane has not flown yet. I used 7/8" .35 4130 for the rods and used rod ends for th econnections.
