My elevators sucked rigt out of the box.
One of them weighs half of the other, and the light one has no torsional strength at all.
The wood is VERY soft.
First I tried to glue a trip of carbon to the trailing edge, but it was not enough.
Instead of building new ones, I decided to laminate carbon weave into the top and lower surfacees, with bals on the outside so I easily can recover them with film.
If thisd plane ever goes in, the elevators will be the only thing undamaged for sure.....they are now tough as nails.....and ofcourse a gained a little weight at the worst place possible.
But all have to live with it.
I also deliberatly made my elevator trailing edges very blunt, hopefully to reduce the tendancy of elevator flutter.
This is where I have got to for now.....I have not touched it for about a month.
I have a few other projects that im building on at the moment too, but il get back at this awesome looking plane soon
