RE: New Alignment Idea
Thanks for that information. It helps a lot!!
What about getting the horizontal stab square with the wing? The 'string' method that some kits/arfs use or measuring from the wing tip to the stab tip is a bit off. These methods seem to be a bit lacking for some reason... there must be a better way. When I do it, I end up 1/8 inch either way and never exact.
For example, the Excelleron 90 I am building. When I was done, the covering on the horizontal stab was not symmetrical so it looked crooked so I remeasured and still it did not look straight. But it seemed to measure out correctly.
I know that the covering is probably not straight or exact, but I was hoping that it would be a guide or something pretty close.
Any hints on that?
