RC Aircraft Rigging and Struts
Biplanes, scale models, and vintage subjects often carry rigging wires and struts that brace the wings and add to the aircraft's authentic look. This category covers the couplers, turnbuckles, and brackets used to set up working or scale rigging on a model.
Couplers and Rod Ends
Steel rigging couplers with an eyelet hole are offered in 2-56 and 4-40 threads, and a Du-Bro 4-40 steel rod end assembly gives a clean threaded termination. These parts let you build up a rigging line to length and adjust it at the ends.
Turnbuckles and Brackets
A Du-Bro quarter-scale steel turnbuckle allows fine tensioning of a wire, while Du-Bro nickel-plated steel straps and a Flair five-hole bracket provide anchor points on the airframe. Together these handle both the function and the appearance of a rigged model, letting you set tension and hold it once the wires are in place.
