Making push rods was created by Dean M
I want to use pushrods for the elevator and rudder in my Kavalier, Is there any tips to prevent blow back? like, will balsa dowel be to flexible?
Any other helpful tips? I have only used snakes before so want to try something different.

Somebody called me 'pretentious' the other day.

I nearly choked on my latte.

balsa will be fine. 6mm is ok.
bend the end of the wire and glue it into a hole in the dowel and then bind the wire to the dowel with twine and super glue.:)
