Title: Re: [RCSE] push rod install tricks?

Put the two push rods casings in the tail boom and see what size balsa fits between them with a little clearamce. Find a stick of soft (light) balsa the right size and wrap the push rod casings to opposite sides of the balsa stick with thread. You can ass a third tube for the antenna before thread wrapping. Use a little thin CA to hold everyrhing in place. If you want to save weight, just use 1/2 inch long sections of push rod casings spaced 2 or 3 inches apart along the balsa stick. Another weight saving trick is to use heat shrink tubing instead of the heavier pushrod casings taking care not to flatten the tubing.

I hope this helps.

I am working on my new NSP Micro1.5. The fuselage is a bit narrow, it is actually a long CF tailboom.  on bigger model, I usually sand the pushrod ,glue it on the fuse and epoxy a small piece of glass cloth over it, but this fuse is too narrow for this. how should I install the push rod on narrow fuse like this, and make it slop free?
 

BTW what is micro balloon?
