I know....but soright. Heck fully sheeting the stab is overkill but does provide a nicer surface to cover with veil/Jap tissue

I should shave 4 ounces off the tail which should be just enough to allow me the return of the forawrd wing position. It's the only reason for doing this exercize.

BTW- the balsa/glass sockets for the stab tube were installed last night. Each socket weighed a scant 1.7 grams. Wrapped some carbon tow around it to hold things together better. Strong enough for the job!!
