RE: Westbury Hunter Build Thread
After largely completing the taiplane and elevators, I moved on to the fin and rudder. Again, the fin was non-scale, with a chord approximately 1inch larger than scale. The bottom part of the fin molded into the fuselage also was about 1inch too long as well. I thought I would have to build a new fin, but after some head scratching, I managed to trim down the supplied foam fin to the correct scale outline. Modifying the fuselage was a bit more drastic, and I took out the Dremel and cutting disk and trimmed away the rear of the fin molding. Some Aeropoxy was used to close off the new trailing edge profile, and when dry some glass cloth and filler will be used to reprofile the area.
