Butterfly/Lazy Days 10 - Tail/Antenna


Butterfly/Lazy Days 10 - Tail/Antenna

I was am still not happy with the way the rudder hinges. So for a temporary fix I put some Blenderm on the lower hinge area to give it some added strength. Alan my flying buddy looked it over and he agreed with my assessment but said it would be good enough for now.

Some just have the antenna hanging out of the bottom of the aircraft, I thought it would be much better to have it somewhat protected. So I ran it through the tail boom and poked a hole in the vertical stab and secured it that way.

Still thinking about getting some clear green and finishing the boom and the cowl plastic parts... Sorta looks cool but I go back and forth with the idea.
