Pushrod assembly / Empennage Fairings

Small progress with the few remaining items of the empennage. The forward V-stab skin was attached. I then attached the rod bearing and remaining items to complete the pushrod assembly. I am waiting on attaching the servo until I have completed the wiring connections.  I have ordered a crimper that will allow for crimping of the connections for trim servo.  Once that arrives I will complete the servo.

With a little time left I started on the empennage fairings. It began with sanding the edges to within 1/2 inch of the lip.  This was easily accomplished with a wood block and 60 grit sanding paper. The rear portion of the V stab fairing was then shaped with a dremel.  Drilling and attachment will have to wait until next time.

Time: 1 hr
