Default Disconnecting control arms?

DUBRO use to make some snap on/off diconnecting control devices for GS.
What I am wanting to do is to be able to disconnect my elevator from the servo arms and take off of my H9 33% Extra for transportation purposes.
And then re attach at filed without having to turn TX on to find nuetral of servos, etc...

Are there any out there?

I have looked at Nelson, etc.... with no luck.

Would love to have Part #'s etc.... IF possible.

Thanks

Roger, is there enough room to mount the servos in the stab? One thing I've seen over the years is having to remove things and put them back on very often has caused problems for me. You are I'm sure far better than I at paying close attention to stress/ wear issues. They've bitten me more than once. Opening and closing metal or plastic parts very often scares me.

Bob "Biff"
I have seen mounting in the stab done on the H9 Edge and had seen reports of it done on the Extra 330 too. Could be an option I may have to try and do.

Your explanation could be why DUBRO and others no longer make them.

Tim Mills uses them on his GP 330 and loves them.

I guess other option is get a bigger transporter

Altough it is in my RV

Thanks

Roger

http://www.sullivanproducts.com/ContSysAccMainFrame.htm Locking sleeve ball links, I have been using them for years on my 34-40% plane for transportation! Exactly what you are looking for!

Kitman:
That could be the ticket.
Will have to order a few and try them.
