Default RE: elevator gap

MinnFlyer's a great source of knowledge... and he has a picture for everything.

Just make sure when you've sealed your gap you still get full flex from the control surface. Best way to achieve this is extend the surface fully downwards then seal the top, then flip the plane and reverse the process so the two layers of sealing medium actually stick to each other through the gap along the hinge line.
