    Ted...on your rudder you have what looked like a 1/8 inch tube about a foot long. Is this to to fine tune rudder? If so, how do you know what size to make it ?

    Hey David,

    Yep, it's for trim. Mine needs a little right rudder so I cut about 6" of 5/16" wooden dowel in half lengthwise, painted it, and taped it to the rudder.

    You need to fly first and see what your plane needs in cruise then it's just trial and error. Same as with a tab...

    Regards,

    Ted
