Marty,

I am not under the impression that it will make any difference what so ever.  Case in point the new CH-750.  If you look closely at the construction method of the same part ( the elevator ), you will notice that on the 750, it is built in the exact same way that I built this one.  Another positive construction method is in the skinning.  When done in multiple pieces such as the 750 is done, the assemble, and installation of the skins is much easier, and a lot more professionel looking that is normnally seen on the 701.

 

Good luck with your choices

Hi Robert,

That looks fantastic.

 

With your trailing edges, do you anticipate any change in handling as you don't have the 15 degree bend shown in the plan?  I'm close to doing my plans-built elevator too (working on the stabilizer now) and I'd love to do the same thing as you, as it looks like a far neater job.

 

Thanks, Marty
