Default RE: New Somenized (TM) 69", Yak-54

Good to hear. I am currently putting together a QQ 69" Yak and look forward to flying it.

The elevator cross-bar worries me some. The length of the carbon rod was only long enough to go into the hard point inside each elevator half. This doesn't seem like a strong enough solution. I have already epoxied it in (30-min) and built a fillet around the outside surface. Hopefully it will hold. I wanted to see two hard points per half to make torsionally stronger.

I'll be running a YS 1.10.
