Ok...
Building my first Versa Wing so that I can compete in the combat events at my field, and as I'm going through the build video, I see Josh use a coffee stirrer/straw for the pushrods, going from the servo back to the elevons.
I've build a Duster, my Sea Duck, a MiG-3, and now this, and of those, the only one that seemed critical to have that straw was the Sea Duck, where it goes out to the elevator on a long run from the servo.
How important are those straws on the Versa Wing? I'm just debating on whether I should design something to 3D print, since the local Starbucks, Peet's, and other coffee shops don't carry them anymore (local law that was passed basically banning the use of plastics for food unless they're like, BPA free, or reusable, or biodegradable like PLA).
Are they really critical?
