Has anyone tryed using a felxible drive for the rail rotors yet?

I have seen it many times on RC helicopters and never heard of any failures

A larger variant will make for a system with many less parts with high tail gearbox setups

Run the shaft through a bent sleve lined with nylon. As long as its correctly lubricated, I dont see why its not a good idea

Any thoughts?
