I think the hinge line on my fin is more vertical than the one Skip is using. It was mainly done to make it look a bit more modern, and to improve knife-edge flight. I'm still essentially a beginner, but an expert pilot who has flown my Taurus was able to do slow rolls, 4-point rolls, knife edge, even figure Ms with it. It was absolutely great to see what an accompliched pilot could do with a Taurus--- in spite of the semi-symmetrical airfoil the Taurus uses. IMHO, this is a wonderful plane to fly under low or moderate wind conditions.

I also removed about 1/2 of the dihedral, as a side-by-side comparison shows.
