Had to see how the wheel covers would look. The backs will be the same color as the underside of the wing. I have to get the tail feathers done now so I can run the cables and close up the fuselage. I made the fin today. Tail post is a 5/16" arrow shaft. I'll be using GTM scale hinges. Leading edge of rudder will also be 5/16" carbon arrow shaft. Fin is laminated 1/16" bass wood sheet and 5/16" balsa sticks which will be sheeted with 1/8" balsa.
