Default Giles 202 (again)



Iposted this in the giant scale forum and in a week have had zero responses. So Ithought Iwould ask the question in here. Maybe a few more eyes???



I know this is an old discontinued kit. But if there is anyone out there who has built this kit please let me know. I have skinned the vert stab and rudder and, if you built this kit then you know, the pictures in the directions suck. Very poor quality. And there seems to be something that the directions have left out. Looking at the plans does not answer what I am looking at either.
There is one pic of the fin with a cutout that is not described anywhere. It looks like it will fit over the horizontal stab and have the same contour as the stab. I have read all the directions and maybe I have missed it but I do not see anywhere how this is measured.
It is my first foam core and I do not want to cut until I am sure.

If you have experiance with this kit please chime in. If pics are needed I can take all that is necessary. Thanks</p>
