Default RE: Elevator hinge idea

The only part about the idea that I don't like is the resins' weight. That's why I would scrape it on real thin and use lots of pressure to clamps the lamination good. The thin resin centerline will give a natural hard point for an airfoiled stabs sides to converge at, for the most accurate shaping job possible. When you're building a 45 mph plane, you just can't be too carefull .
