Hi Doug,

I have flown a Patriot for two seasons and the only thing I would recommend is to remove the sweep from the trailing edge of the horizontal stab and use a single joiner for the elevator. The split elevator is a pain to get to if you need to adjust it at the elevator (some slight damage required me to go in there). Also, I would add about 1/4" to 1/2" to the chord of each elevator half.

Nice flying plane, you'll love it!
