Default Which linkage rods?

So I don't actually need these right now but I was looking through the manual for my X5 Formula (with the Formula Head and Swash) and realized it doesn't show the part numbers for the various linkage rods.

I was curious so went to look them up online and realized it was somewhat difficult to sort out. As mentioned it's not terribly important but would like to mark them down in case they're needed in the future.

I've come to the conclusion that these are the swash to main grip linkages:

So it's just the servo to swash link rods that I'm not sure of. I'm assuming they're the same parts as used on the FES.

I can't find them sold separately but I notice there's this set which includes the 31mm rods for the mains and then three 23.5 rods as well. Are those three for servo to swash?

The first link you posted is for the swash to grip links for the older V1 formula head, the short one. The new longer one uses different rods. FWIW, I use the x7 turnbuckle links. But I just ordered some 55mm davinci links and I'll try those.

The second link, the 3 short ones are indeed swash to servo links.

If you use the original FES head, you'd pretty much use the same links with the V2 formula head

Thank-you for the confirmation. (It actually is the original shorter Formula V1 head that I have).

You can use the goblin 500 turnbuckles.
