Thanks for the help and encouragement on the rudder post attachment. I had planned on building a wood tail skid, much as you guys have done. Additionally, I was planning on a removable steerable wire tail skid, sort of like this:
That would ( I hoped) give me some ground control when I needed it. But, when I saw the rudder attachment, I didn't want to add any stress to that glue joint. Now I have to re-think my steerable tail skid.
I'm at the point of stabilizer and rudder attachment. I think VG mentioned using a removable stab in case an adjustment to the incidence is needed. Sounds simple, but being sensitive to the idea of adding weight to the tail of an aircraft, I was curious about how you went about that. Any ideas other than beefing up the stab and the deck to support a couple of bolts? Or should I even be worried about a bit of tail weight? I am using a DLE 30 for power, that might offset a little tail weight.
She is looking good.
