Default RE: Adding dowels to coroplast tail surface LE
Since there are lots of mutually exclusive options for the TE, can you make a recommendation based on the following requirements:

1. coroplast tail surfaces
2. fin only, no rudder
3. oversized elevator
4. 48" wing span
5. seeking strength and improved aerodynamics, but only if the weight trade-off is minimal.

Given this list of requirements, would you go with dowels on the TE (for a rounded edge) or stick with the default squared TE coroplast edges?
