Gator RC 24mm Aluminum Control Horn w/ Ball Bearing Clevis
This 24mm aluminum control horn system is designed for smooth, reliable linkage performance in RC airplanes. The included ball bearing clevis allows the linkage to move freely, reducing friction and preventing binding—even when the pushrod is not perfectly aligned.
🔧 Key Features
- Ball bearing clevis for smooth, low-friction movement
- Fixed 24mm control horn for compact installations
- Aluminum construction for strength and durability
- Reduces binding and linkage stress
- Compatible with 2mm–3mm pushrods
⚙️ Bearing Movement Advantage
Unlike standard clevis setups, the integrated bearing allows the linkage to pivot freely:
- Straight pushrod: Smooth operation with minimal friction
- Angled pushrod: Bearing allows movement without binding
This reduces servo load and improves control consistency across the full range of motion.
Modeler’s Tip:
Use bearing-style clevis systems when your pushrod is not perfectly straight. This helps prevent binding and improves long-term reliability.
