Pushrod Grips

Pushrod Grips
Threaded-wire pushrods can be difficult to screw into those flexible nylon pushrods. You could bend an “L” in the end of the wire, or use pliers, which would scar the material. Why not simply fasten a suitable wheel collar to the wire to give you something to grip? Adapted from 400 Great R/C Modeling Tips by Jim Newman, Volume II, an Air Age Media publication.
