Ok.......on the inside right half of the elevator the gap is about 1/4 inch.....I know....that is alot.....and then I gets smaller as you go out toward the elevator tip; then on the LEFT inside elevator at the first hinge, it measures about 3/16+- and it gets smaller also as you go toward the tip of the elevator.....That is alot......I took that plane to the LHS and they said that I wouldn't have any problems because it being a aerobatic plane like I said I wouldn't be flying it TOO fast....well enough to cause flutter......I know that alot are asking how you could get the HUGE gap that I got......well you know how on the ARF Somethin Extra, you have to put that metal "bent" rod into each elevator half, well, I guess that I just didn't get that to equal into the elevator and that's what caused it.......The only problem si is I have to or need to take off the elevators to rehinge them then I would also have to take off the rudder and all.....But, on the other hand I wouldn't want to take the chance of my hinges failing......I always learn the hard way.....and I never really learn.....I tried to push the elevator all the way into the the stab but I had to get it as good as I could........These gaps that I made are the process of me putting everything and pushing with all my might, all the while trying not to push to hard so I don't break anything......I wouldn't want that to happen........I wish that I could provide a picture, but don't have a digi........I do have a video camera but not capable of putting that on the computer........I'll see what the guys at the field say........they would be able to look at the gap and determine what to do....not to say that I can't get the info right here, but I wish I had a good picture that I could show......I hope that my measurments are right.......but it is DEFENATLEY NNOOTT 1/16....that gap is HUMUNGUS......that is to me though......I hope that I don't have to cut everything away........
