Default 3M Comp Arf YAK rudder setup

Fellow Giants....

Just ordered a 3M Comp arf yak... should be in the states in July sometime...Anyways...

I want to know if anybody has mounted the rudder servos in the tail and used rods to connect to the rudder instead of using pull-pull cables...

I've never been a fan of the pull pull setup and i have made the modification to many of my giant scales but they have all been WOOD!! i've never done done this on a Composite plane....

I have nothing against the pull pull system I just prefer something other than a cable...


Any pictures or tips on how you guys would go about doing this would be cool...

Paul
