Now that the stab is all dry, i cut the stab into three sections. since this is getting molded, i have chosen to make the stabs removable while the stab root fillet is molded into the fuselage. The stab socket in the fuselage will also be installed when when the mold halves are closed.

For those wondering, this seam line is EXACTLY on the edge of the fillet panel line so the seam wont be noticeable.




The stab halves removed. I was unsure if the servos would be mounted in the stabs or not, so i left that option open to me and predrilled holes for servo routing. Now that some time has passed, the servos wont be mounted in the stab. I'll be using a hexagonal rod and some CNC cut G10 parts that will fit fiberglass sockets in the elevators. This is much more work initially, but it'll provide a very strong linkage option.



then the stabs were placed on their tube and reinstalled. So far so good!
