<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="font-size: 9pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: ">I'veheardof issues with the vertical stab coming loose; it’s understandable because it’s held in place with only one clamp on the main carbon fiber rod. There is nothingsupporting the areatowards the leading edge. So I removed the stab and cut a hole through the skin on the bottom of the stab just in front of the 2nd carbon rod. Iglued in a thick hardwood block that fit the cut out with hysol. After the hysol set,I temporarily placed the stabback on the fuse, then from inside the fuse Idrilledinto the hardwood block. Then removing the stab Itapped the hole for a 4-40 hex screw. Then you can place the stabback on the fuse, clamp down the main screw, then install a 4-40 bolt into the wood block - its solid now and should not come loose or have any movement in the air.</span></p>
