  • tail rod guides

    Has anyone come up with a better solution for the tail rod guides??? I keep having the front one coming out all the while and if im honest its beginning to pi^% me off! Ive tried epoxying it in and even a cable tie round it but the front most one comes out every time and the tail does horrible things suddenly when you dont want it to!

    Cheers guys

          take the rod guides off and cut a piece of carbon tube about 3mm shorter than the gap between the ball links... epoxy it to the tail rod you wont need guides then..

                Which model?

                If its the normal boom diameter then try these from the NEX 50

                  yeah just the bog stock V50, they look exactly what I need!! If I give a big tail input and a rapid stop at the minute the little block pops out and then next time i need strong tail movements it does summat I wasnt expectin!

                  Ill order them now from fastlads
