been getting some work done in bits and pieces I traced the tail feathers onto some stiff paper and glued up some skins out of ultra light 1/8 balsa, I then before gluing I sanded in a bit of a airfoil so I didn't need to do all the sanding on the plane making sure to keep the shape consistent with reference lines in strategic areas, a little more work to do to sand in more foil and some blending, also added some hinge points to the rudder not allot of added weight with the light weight balsa
