Offered as a set of ten, these D5mm ball connectors are designed for general helicopter linkage maintenance and spare use. Each connector serves as a compact ball joint where a 5mm seating is specified.
Installation notes: place the ball into the matching ball cup or rod end sized for 5mm, tighten threaded connections to the linkrod with the correct thread engagement, and check for any play after fitting. Apply a suitable RC threadlocker on metal-to-metal threads when installing on rotating components.
Tuning and service role: the connectors act as replaceable pivot points between servo arms and swashplates or control horns, assisting in maintaining consistent travel and reducing slop in pitch and cyclic adjustments. Inspect parts regularly and replace any that show visible wear or excessive movement.
