Default RE: Modify four-star 40

Why do you want to add the rudder/elev balance tabs -- are you experiencing flutter? That mod is a fair bit of work & unless well engineered, it can weaken the assemblies. There is less lateral space for hinges, & the unsupported outboard sections will try to flex -- thus loading up the outermost hinges & possibly leading to premature failure. If it is just for appearance, I wouldn't bother.
