just have surpass the servo's torque a bit, really....I've used</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>40 lbs. and 20 lbs. coated fishing lines just
because I had them around. The major thing to avoid</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>is chafing. As long as you don't tear the line
by chafing it on the glass fuselage at the exit point, the </FONT></DIV>

attachment methods, </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>any coated fishing
line in the</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 20ish lbs. range </FONT><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I like using eye bolts before the clevis, as they
are rounded without any sharp edges where the </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>cable loops back and </FONT><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I see a reference to 40# Kevlar, which triggers a
question. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What strength Kevlar is needed. The airplane
pull-pull system I've seen state 100#. I've read you can use Spiderwire
fishing Kevlar but the strongest I've seen in that is 65#.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This may be a dumb question, but I'm attempting
to setup elevator pull-pull for the 1st time & don't want to creat a
problem with line that's too small.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks Eddie</FONT></DIV>

face=Arial><FONT size=-1>Gray what is the CTI for balsa ? I have
carbon push rods / balsa fuse and my elev trim moves around
considerably. I suppose it is because of humidity variation between
the shop and outdoors ?? The pushrods are 50"
