If you DO decide to cut the stab loose Dave, I used a straight cutting bit in my Dremel and went SSSLLLOOOWWW. The hole was a little large so I just made up balsa wedges and centered the stab back in place. I Zapped the wedges then trimed flush and filled in w/ epoxy and milled fibers. After looking at the rudder throws of 2", I may have to modify the rudder tiller arm. It will take a lot of throw to make it work as is. I may use the aileron horn setup using a horn and wheel collar. What will be nice is that the brass will let the set screw bite in solid.
