Default Making control surfaces?

hey guys. I was just wondering if I could take my weekend-flier Nexstar to a whole new level. Let me first explain that I KNOW that it is a TRAINER, and that i AM not a newbie. I REALIZE that the PLANE was MADE to TEACH people how to fly, and not do ACROBATICS. however, i believe that this little plane is capeable of much more. I have adjsted all the throws to get the maximum deflection that is possible, and trust me, I can handle acrobatics!

My question is: is it possible to successfully make control surface extentions with perhaps a sheet of thick lexan? I was considering extending the control surfaces so they further impact the flight characteristics of the plane. I know that i would have to adjust the cg and all other balencing of the plane, but is there any way to make extentions easily????

thanks, Ryan
