Before and after rudder pics. In cutting the rudder out, the gap at the rudder balance was too great and I resorted to adding some thin plastic card.



The molded trim actuator and the trim tab balance were removed and replaced with scratch built pieces. The trim balance is a piece of copper wire bent around a file handle, cut and hammered flat. Pieces of stretched sprue were then added at the attachyment points and another added at the bottom for the actuator. The rudder's a bit messy and will be cleaned up and primed.



Thanks for checking in.
 
Thanks Terry. Should get the rudder on this weekend. Have not decided whether or not to add the resin engine or just close her up and get on with paint
