DIY RC Push Rods - super cheap - $0.03 each 

Happy to help, happy flying!

Aero FPV , I apreciate that, you have any advice on inproving the quality of this type of content? I'm fairly new to production. cheers

Anything to help Drew. I'll keep those gears in my brain goin to see what I can come up with :^) But I do know flight review info is big on YT. Take a look at my friend Jeff's channel at 7demo7 for some great ideas.

Greetings again Luqman, thanks for watching, I'm glad this video was helpful to someone!

Thanks, I clicked on this but do not like the idea of burning off galvanized wire... That stuff can kill your lungs.. Again Thank you.. I'm going to go look for them..

cyclistpilot, not a bad idea, wonder what kind would be good to use. would be fun to run some stiffness tests

DrewMan RC oil wouldn't do anything with this but make a mess and a small flame

oil is used to quench (temper) metals because it has a much higher boiling temperature than water. When the red hot metal comes in contact with the water, a layer of vapor is created instantaneously, which will diminuish the heat transfer . Lower heat transfer, longer cooling time, which dificults the tempering process of the metal because it is necessary to cool the metal as quick as possible. With oil this doesn't happen so easily. On the other hand, the wire is so thin, that you can use water without losing hardness...

Spencer Boaz, I was fairly surprised as well, but hey, if it works it works :)

piano wire is cheep but the shipping kills ya . If HK's shipping was cheaper I would buy way more from them I look for free shipping on ebay .

Spencer Boaz buy from radicalrc for com... $3 U.S.A.shipping with 6 pieces of rod stock or more...music wire counts. Always in stock and cheap for .032 like $.55 for a straight 3 feet...

Matt Jones , that might work, sounds a bit sketchy tho

That's true. I would just do it this way.

electricity, water, red hot wire, what could go wrong? why not just buy some piano wire at the hobby shop, it is pretty cheap. some of it even has threaded ends that fit quick links.

Matt your a smartie pants that would but this whole process down to a couple of seconds per wire. As long as you remember to turn off the power before you quench it.

For the most part yes, although you may need to use a small drill bit to widen the servo arm holes just a bit.

@@DrewMann nobody give this information

maybe, not sure that it would get hot enough

sorry, the wire will certainly become less flexible after tempering

@@DrewMann what is the solution

@@advancetech7479 you could try doing the bends in stages, heating between each bend perhaps?

reHeat the end you want to bend and let it cool slowly. This will remove most of the hardness/ temper. After you have the shape you want heat it again then dip it in water again to harden it. Hope this helps.
