Abstract

A damage resistant control, including: a first shaft; a second shaft having its proximal end attached to control apparatus; and adapter apparatus connecting the distal end of the first shaft and the distal end of the second shaft such as to permit a degree of axial movement between the first shaft and the second shaft so as to isolate axial force applied to the first shaft from being transmitted to the second shaft.
