BEC rear engine - gear change setups.
Any chance of folks pics of their setups please , intend to do a rod change to the lever, but also run a Pingel solenoid in that linkage.
Links to build blogs are champion. Thanks.

I used rod on mine moons ago, doing it again a push pull cable would be my choice.

Jon, why wouldnt you use a rod again? Any issues or just personal choice?

1 cable will replace several rods & pivots, each one puts potential slack into the linkage ?

What I'm proposing is to run my Pingel solenoid mounted somewhere, probably behind the gearshaft
Pictures are good, then I can copy.
It's the design of the stick mount & bracketing I'm after.
Cheers guys.

I originally used a paddle shift with 3m push-pull cable but it was a PITA so now have a stubby lever with a short bacle going straight back. Works
great. Pics etc. on my blog.
Not very Locost but very BEC
