something went wrong
with your drilling and your
elevators are not 100
parallel, we have included
a second piece of carbon
rod for a second attempt.
Last but not least mark the
position of the stab tube
and the support rib in the
stab and drill a 3 mm hole
through stab and tube from
the bottom side. Do not
drill all the way through.
Take the stabs off and glue
an M3 T-nut into the tube
as a thread for the stab
securing bolts. You can
trim that T-nut to fit best
inside the tube. Wax a long
M3 bolt and screw it into
the nut during gluing so
that the thread stays clean
and vertical alignment is
maintained.
The result of your work is
a beautifully clean rudder
and elevator installation,
without any visible control
horns and linkages. You
are nearing the closing
stages of your building
work, left is the front end
of the plane.
Drill with 3 mm (mark the position carefully and precisely) and then glue in an M3 T-nut

linkage.
