A little more rounding on the elevator leading edge will get me to the specified throws required. Robart hinge points perform nicely. |

A strip of 1/32" plywood recessed at trailing edge will hide elevator gap and eliminate some flutter. |

hit the big 52 today, actually it hit me. Sneaking in a little time for elevator assembly. Robart hinge point hinges and 1/8" metal tie-in laid out for drillling tomorrow. |

Rudder assembly. I drilled lots of lightening holes in this and the stabilizer frame prior to covering with 1/16 skin. |
