Chuck has been the busy one this week. He has been working out the details on all the metal parts needed to finish and mount the elevators to the horizontal stabilizer. Mechanically, this is our most complex assembly to date.



This figure shows the left (port) stabilizer on top with the two mounting brackets and the center bearing assembly in place. The parts are shown separate with arrows to give a clearer view. Finally, on the bottom are larger models so that you can get a better view of each part. A mounting bracket is on the left and the center bearing assembly is on the right.


Chuck also worked on a list of parts to order from Aircraft Spruce as well as finalizing the aileron design so that we can begin cutting them next week.
