Ok nobody on the Giant scale side seems to build anymore.
What size dowels are you using for hardpoints when utilizing Nelson or H-9 hardware for the control surfaces. I am use to using large control horns.
Thanks for the help

Not familiar with their horns, do they use a single screw through middle? I just did some of the DuBro 1/4 scale for both elevators and the pull-pull on rudder. I used 3/4" dowel for hard points. You might call the fellows at Nelson and see what they recommend. Good luck.

Yea pretty much the same method. 8-32 or 10-32 screw through a dowel. The directions just state use what is suitable. 3/4" does sound better than 3/8". I want to make sure I get this right.
