    Question Best tight radius steering and throttle cables?

    I need longer cables anyways and seeing as I have a couple tight bends inside the canopy might as well get something that will make the bends with as little drag as possible. What would you guys recommend?

    Any of the multi strand control cables would be better than solid. We've been useing the Uflex cables for a while and have had good luck with theirs....can wrap them in a 6" diameter circle and they still work as if they are in a straight line. As for steering all of the cables are gonna be a pita with tight bends...hydraulic hoses work much better with hard bends but then comes the money.

    I just noticed I typed steering, I have full Hydralic already.. brain fart. Just looking for Throttle and Trim indicator cables. I found the new Teleflex (sp?) xtreme cables can be bend into a 4" radius. I'll order a couple today and see.

    Thanks
