I want to add a rudder to my IFO MK 3. I am in the construction process at the point of adding the rudder. Has anyone added a rudder to it? I see the Trainer IFO has a rudder but can not see how it is attached.

I thought of using the 1/8" tubing supplied and mounting it vertically in the right aft corner where the fuse stick meets the training edge. Then add a third servo behind the 2 that are already there.

ANY suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,
Jeff

My friend built my IFO with a working rudder. It makes flying the IFO more fun. At high angles of attack the IFO has some adverse yaw that you can't control if you don't have a rudder. The IFO will turn nicely with just the rudder.

Mine turned out VERY tail heavy, where is your CG from the leading edge?

My CG is right at the recommended location. My friend moved the receiver and LiPo battery around to get the CG right.
