I drilled a 1/4 inch hole through the fuselage right under the leading edge of the horiz. stab and 30min. epoxied a 1/4 inch dowel for support. Trimmed excess off and painted dowel and you can't even notice. Fixed the problem.

So if I understand your fix, I could drill a hole right through the Fuse before installation of the horizontal stab and add another dowel not unlike the one that's already there?


Hal, with your major mods to the horizontal stab installation did you have any trouble with flutter?
