A method and system for imparting a linear motion to a flexible shaft is disclosed. The system includes a bellcrank having a first arm, a second arm, and a first pivot pin therebetween. The system further includes an actuating device coupled to the first arm and configured to apply a force to cause the bellcrank to rotate about the first pivot pin. Still further, the system includes a second pivot pin coupled to a rod-end of the flexible shaft and further coupled to a slotted hole on the second arm. Yet still further, the system includes a follower surface on the rod-end of the flexible shaft and configured to slide on a cam surface machined on the second arm. Upon application of the force to the first arm, the flexible shaft moves in a substantially linear motion.
