Default Dave Patrick Extra 330L

flymyplane,
These are the new set of wings. They didnt have any kind of braces to keep em from flexing. So I used 1/8" balsa sheet and made cross braces on each of the aileron bays. Didint sheet em like the last set i did before i crashed em. I have also used Robart pin points on the ailerons.
Now for the elevators. I used Kleet hinges, 4 each side. There were two that i had to trim so they wouldnt hit the tube socket.
I also used pin points on my rudder. I had to do some ripping apart to get the blocks back there. But well worth it. I have no kind of flutter on any of the surfaces. Even on full throttle passes. :surprised
