Default RE: Building a Dynaflite Super Decathlon

One thing I noticed is that the empianage is probably built with too much wood than recommended. The rudder could have been built with less wood. I'm going to look at the rudder and see if I can shave off some wood in that area. I'm not sure how much to take off the horizontal stabilizer since that is more critical to the plane's structure. Loss of control to the rudder is less severe than loss of control to the horizontal stabilizer.
