Ball Links Backwards?..

[Airickf]

Hi, I'm a complete newb. I just finished building my T-Rex 450 SE that I got for Christmas. Then I watched the finless video on ball links.... Ooops, I put some of the ball links on backwards... ("A" facing inside...) Will this cause me problem? Should I change them out?

Thanks!,
Eric

It can over stretch the links if you take them on and off all the time, I'd leave them be. If you have a reason to pop it off then go ahead and change it just make sure you dont screw up your setup.

Sometimes with the collective links there's no other way to get them in track than going a half turn. Also its less of a problem with the softer plastic ball link ends than the harder plastic A arms that control the elevator on some designs.

You know there's a right way and a wrong way to put the balls on to. If you look at them closely you can see a differance. One side has a shoulder and that is the side that goes toward the arm. It keeps the liink a little further away from the arm.
