Well, here some pics of the vertical fins. The initial fit of the rudder was a little off but no big deal, just took a little more sanding and fitting. Here again, I did not like the way that the angles of the hingeline and the pushrod were in relation to each other, it seems that there could be a fair amount of binding as the rudder throw increased so I had a couple of ideas to make it better, or so I hope! I was going to machine a torque shaft that went into the bottom of the rudder and down to the servo utilizing a fully concealed linkage and then change the angle of the mount so that everything would be perpendicular when set up, I changed my mind on that because I was worried that I would not get enough leverage on the linkage so I am going for mounting the servo farther up in the fin through a hatch and jsut run a direct drive to the rudder. We will see how it goes! I hope that the fin will be rigid enough when everything is finished.
