The start of shaping the V struts. The right hand one is near complete & the left is stock off the sheet.
Showing the difference of this here. I made larger fillets over the joints to fair the fillets better.
Fin & rudder. The fillet for the control horn was quite delicate & I'd broken it & reglued a couple of times while getting the horn in. I'd been thinkinig about a dummy rod for the non-control side (as I'd like to do this for the ailerons)...
Stab & elevator. The slot on the reinforcing plate for the control horn need to be widened to accecpt the ply horns provided in the kit. I've made another one for the opposite side to make a simple pull/pull system.
This is why I'd cut out the stringers... The stab has to slip in somehow as it's a complete unit. It wasn't long after this shot that I'd inadvertantly snapped the stab between the two sides while sanding.
