Has anyone seen the adjustable linkage for the upper linkage from the swash-plate to the rotor head (say on a Logo 10) that you can adjust without removing it ? It has a hex adjustment in the middle the you can turn one way makes it longer the other shorter . I had heard from a guy a while back that had them but didn't ask where he had got them from . He may have made them . Or I was hoping they were mass produced because I think that would be a real good way to fine tune those last few adjustments and you don't have to worry about the half turn to make it line back up to the balls to snap it back in place . Let me know if you have seen them and if not let me know if you think it would be a product you would buy ?

I have made them using round brass bar with a 2.5mm hole drilled right through for the threads and two 'flats' filed on the outside for a small spanner to hold onto for adjustment but to be honest I think it is just as quick to pop off the link and adjust it in the normal way. If you still want to make them 'hex' bar is available but the hole that goes through must be drilled spot-on I used a model makers lathe but a bench drill press would work ok too.
Hope this helps.

Lunsford, an RC car company makes them, they are typicially used for tie rods on RC cars, where you can adjust toe in and toe out from track to track. begin your search in the RC car department.
