Re-balance Using Tungsten Rod Rudder Closeout Rudder Fitting_1: This is the firsrt of 6 photos of fitting the rudder to the VS. The pictures are annotated to show that the process was complicated by two hinge mis-alignments on the fastbuild tail and the imperfections of the rudder cuff - namely the excessive width where the cuff fits into the TE well of the VS. Rudder Fitting_2: The fitting process was also hindered by a very sketchy set of instructions in the last section of the fast-build tail supplement. Ron Raby, Bryan Burr, Mike Easley, Mike Salzman, Drew Dickinson and especially Tim Ong filled in the gaps. As always, Steve Richards' web site had good advice on the subject. Thanks, guys!
