OK, I hope I have not added to much weight, here is what I have done.

I first added a cap strip of 1/4" aircraft grade ply epoxied to the original servo mount plate, this added considerable strength and I probably could have left it at that.

Then using West Systems epoxy I added carbon fiber cloth. One thing is for sure about my elevator set up, it has the best of everything and even if it is heavy I will never have to worry about it. It's about 70 degrees today, so it's nice to have the epoxy set up so fast!

Can we call the elevators done?
