Brief Description:  Canard mounts and rudder pedals

Trial fitted rudder pedal hardware. Discovered I had not ordered any hardware for their assembly, so am now out of -4 nuts and don't have the right size bolts.

Rivetted K1000-4 nutplates to the previously prepped Al plates, noticing half way through they should be -3. Fahk!!! Decide I have just made the Canard Tab nutplates instead, and proceed to use the prepared Canard plates for the rudders, mounting the K1000-3 on them. They are a little smaller, but I kind of like it that way.

Cut and shaped the 16lb 0.2" foam hardpoints for the outboard rudder pedal mounts. Fitted a greasy bolt through the nutplates, floxed the nutplates to the foam, and the foam to the Fuselage.
