BVM F16 Elevator
 
In desprite need of BVM part.

Does anyone have an extra set of elevator's for a BVM F16, that their willing to part with (will pay) Called BVM this morning and they don't manufacture the elevators for it any more. What a bummer. Now I have a F16 that will probably never see the light of day, solely due to my miss-placing the original elevators and hardware.

Mike,

It might be labor intensive, but I will bet that you can make the elevators yourself. You probably can still get the hardware from BVM.

You might be able to laminate contest grade balsa over a central core of 1/32" ply. Sand the balsa to the proper airfoil shape and glass the assembly. The pivot tube must be securely attached as well. The carbon fiber plate that BV sells to strengthen the stab assemblies (this is included in the F-16 turbine conversion kit) might be useful here.

Did you find a set? If not, email me and I may be able to dig up a set for you.
