Virtical Stab Location ?

ARE THERE ANY PROBLEMS WITH MOVING THE VIRTICAL STAB AND RUDDER REARWARD (BESIDES CG) ABOUT 2" ON A KADET SENIOR? I HAVE LOWERED THE WING ROUGHLY 2 1/2" AND TURTLEDECKED THE FUSELAGE. THE PLANE FLIES GREAT BUT WOULD LOOK BETTER IF THE STAB AND RUDDER COULD BE MOVED BACK TO MATCH THE ELEVATOR.

THANKS
BILL

Sounds like a neat change you've already made. We have a number of Sr's at our field. An all time favourite to train on.
I don't have much to back this up but I don't think it would be a problem at all. One would have to split the Elevator to allow the Rudder to move. You might as well pull the whole Stab and work in a lifting tail. :)
