Another from my list of questions:

SCENARIO:
I'm still finishing up my Eagle II. The instructions say to
put 90 degree bends for my pushrod connections to the servos.
My flying buddy here at work says to solder quick links to the
end - much more secure. My hobby shop sold me Dubro EZ connectors.

I use the EZ connectors on my Gentle Lady, and they are great.
They make it very easy for trimming. My friend says that they
will be too unreliable in a power plane due to the vibration.


QUESTION:
Can I use the EZ connectors, or will they fail due to vibration?
They are my first choice.

Thanks,
--
