Stabilizer Construction Details

Stabilizer Progress
Initial Assembly of Stabilizer components.

Elevator Stop Reinforcement Shim
The unpainted piece is a reinforcing plate/spacer to be mounted under the elevator stop. We made the part larger than the simple packer called for by MAM to help distribute the load caused by the elevator when it contacts the stop. The front two holes coincide with existing rivets for the lateral stringer inside the stabilizer structure.

Elevator Trim Rod Fairing
A fairing for the elevator trim servo rod was formed from utility grade aluminum sheet.

Further Stabilizer Progress
Stabilizer components cleco'd and ready for storage.
