Zenith 750 Cruzer, Stabilizer hinges and the weight balance arm

July 9 2023

Matched the stabilizer and the elevator with a piano hinge. They move not quite freely but better than I expected.
Started building the elevator weight balance arm.

Hi Michael.

My kit has 3 elevator piano hinges - 1 1830 mm and 2 extenders 280 mm each.

Theoretically it should be one hinge 2400 mm long. But now the company does not have such long hinges.

The reason for using either a longer hinge on the extenders is:

Thank you,
