Hello,
I just recieved my Airfoilz Yak today and of course prompty starting building it. Everything was going smoothly until i noticed that my elevator doesn't match up with the stabilizer. I think its maybe the elevator for the edge or something. Anyway. the elevator itself doesn't fit around the stabilizer, so i thought id cut the excess to make it fit. But then i relized that the LE of the elevator half is now almost an inch short for the real stab. Unfortuatlely i glued the vertstab and the horiz stab together allready so i may need a new tail section unless there is another elevator itself avail. Of course i have a pic i took with my cellphone to explain this better.

Another thing is well... my fault. Anyway since i was so excited about building this plane i did make a little boo boo and started skipping ahead in the directions. Well the two wind endcaps i accidently cut up with the joiners thinking those were for the joiner section of the wing. Now is it possible i could get some scraps of depron so i can fix this?

Thanks for such a great plane and i look forward to flying this wonderful piece of work.

Wow, there is another one. Yeah i could have made it work but, I bought the yak to have it look like the yak. It would be a easy fix just to cut the remainder of the horizontal stab to make it fit the outline of the elevator half. However, 3dx is sending me a replacement tail section.
So did you cut the horizontal stab to fit the profile of the elevator half or you left it as is have have the overhang?
