hinges and company

Ok, been away for a while, in the meantime, i bought a foamy, a parzone p51 bl, and a new radio, an economic spektrum 5 ch;
but i did some work too, in fact the elevators now have the right shape, and had been sanded to copy the stabs' shape. i made hinge holes on the stab and on the elevators.

i'm using robart type of hinges. they will go in stabs holes with a socket, an alluminium tube, to let me assemble and disassemble the tail without making a mess.

and here it is! the work is done, the hinges stay in place perfectly.
i've tried to assemble the three pieces, to check how they fit.

I'll have to add some balsa in front of the balance tabs, and give it shape to fit the movement of the elevator part without getting in the way.
then i'll shape the leading edge of the elevators and study a method to use some plywood and do a lip to hide the hinges. i'm keeping being sooo sorry for the horizontal shape of stabs, it's not taped....i'm thinking about making another one more scale...dunno. see you soon
