I'm getting rid of my z-bend servo push-rods. I'm converting over to the B400 push-rods and links. However, which B400 metal balls should I use?

Short: http://www.helidirect.com/product_i...roducts_id=6204

or

Long: http://www.helidirect.com/product_i...roducts_id=6203

Thanks

Could be both need 4 long ones on your CNC swash change them from alum to steel. And on the GuruZ frame use short ones on the servo horns.

here's my list I upgraded mine with I changed out the GuruZ links and rods also even cut the upper pitch links (the fixed dog bones) and made them adjustable. let me know I can hook you up have extra rods and links and balls.

Thanks for the information, Tyran. I have the B400 links and push-rods. I just needed to pick up the right metal balls for my servo horns. I'll just pick up the short balls at my LHS on Monday. Thanks for the offer, though...much appreciated .

By the way, did the longest B400 push-rod work for the left-side servo...the servo that sits the lowest in the GuruZ frame? Were you able to reach the swashplate? That is quite a reach.

I did it somehow cant remember but it was not a problem everything had plenty of threads. Although I haven't set mine up yet as far as servo throw everything is just mechanically fit in the frame. I cut the small rods down and shortened the ball links to make the adjustable pitch links on top of the head in place of the dogbones. I learned from the Rex these are a must makes pitch adjustments and tracking a breeze.
