I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

I was thinking more like no stab/elevator separation. And you would twist the whole thing. Not a question about left and right surface, but maybe i got the question wrong :)

Brian: the build thread for my F-4 includes construction of two separate builds. This is from the first. Check the photos before and after this one to see if they help.

I've been trying to see how the aft section is curved by the engines. I need to carve and sand two 1/4 sq. blocks that recess into the engines and tail but they are hard to determine. I looked through your build david but it was diffuilt to tell through the paint. do you have a close up of the aft section dd?

That's true of real airplanes but this is a static display model and not expected to encounter any turbulence so the stabilizers were attached as two separate entities and glued in place. I haven't seen the plans for a Dumas F-4 but if it's similar to their F-105 you can build the stabilizers so that they move as one unit if you choose. Considering that these are at an anhedral, that might be a bit tricky. And unless it's flying they don't move, anyway.

thanks anders.

One moving element, or else you just make turbulence.

dave, when you did your phantom was the elevator one moveable function or was it partitioned? I think on supersonic planes the horizontal stabilizer was one moving element?

Yes okay - I believe you - just never a thought you did a lot of detailing in that area. I know better now :)
