Short Description: Finished V-Stab including Rudder w/ Tip
|
Installed v-stab tip rib and tip with a temporarilly installed rudder which I then removed as I intend to paint all of the components individually before assembly. First time working with instant super glue apparently - I was NOT anticipating how RAPIDLY it would be INSTANTLY bonded... I only lost a little bit of finger tip. I switched to silicone to tack the washer backers for the fiberglass tip.
This is the first thing I did outside of RANS kit. I installed a fiberglass tip from Aerosport Products in lieu of the plastic tip provided by RANS. The install process was, however, identical.
I then finished up with about 30 minutes of finding H-Stab parts to prepare for the next step which may have to wait a couple of weeks.
