TFL Genesis Cat Testing & Video

[FighterCat57]

I used a 440 rod.

New forums will come.
A Genisis one will be done soon.

The thicker servo rod helped out a bunch!

The 2mm crap the Chinese put in the boats rarely holds up on anything bigger than about a 20-22" boat and then it's iffy. I always switch over to 4-40.

I use 078 piano wire.

Still pretty thin, slightly smaller than 2mm but stiff as hell!

Push rod

May I ask what size servo rod did you use, and where may I purchase one from. Also since hobbycity/hobbyking as come out with some many boats is their any chance of starting a general section for them on the forum? Thank you in advance.

I like to use SS bicycle spokes to make my push rods 3mm thick and won't rust.
They coast $1.00 each at LBS

Thanks buddy, I ordered a 4-40 rod from kintec earlier. I needed to get some other stuff anyway so it worked out.
