Adding to the tail
Back at it today, before another night at work. Had two visitors at the airport to look at the project and talk.
- Crimped new Molex sockets on the taillight wires. Forgot the extractor, so couldn’t take the old ones out of the connector shell to replace ‘em…
- Finished installing the elevators, and connected the pushrod and center bearing.
- Installed the rudder and connected the cables. Some small tweaks to the rod ends and the aft edge of the fuselage and VS skins to eliminate some light rubbing.
At this time, the empennage is fully installed, save for the taillight and some tweaking to the pitch trim servo connector.
