It's just a visual illusion because the control rods happened to be aligned with the main shaft at the time I snapped the shot. You might get away with missing links on a Twister 3D but not on a real one.
You can see in these next few shots taken moments after the one above that the control rods are visible except when they are perfectly in line with the main shaft.
Here's a 200% crop of the original shot above and you can see how the control rods are "hiding".
