OK, EVERYONE in TN - now he's started it . Y'all HAVE to have Eddie (the
Builder) Miller tell all y'all about how he got in a hurry making an EMC
rudder once- but ya gotta WATCH him tell it- it jes ain't the same without
he does ALL the visuals and ALL the sound effects!

Wow - simplicity itself, for those who still actually built their planes and
therefore  have shucks! Thanks, Ed!

Good one Ed.   I use the shucks to protect my stab from dings.  I just
rubber band them on.  If I have the plane turned on with the chucks on the
stab I can tell the way the elevators are trimmed by the fact that the
digital servo's are buzzing.   Set the trim till they stop buzzing and you
have got your neutral elevator.

Tape the foam shucks to the stab and elevator.

<gulp> here goes: I'vwe done it two ways:
1. Measure the incidence of the stab itself without the elevators
ounted  -- with either with a meter or with center lines on the stab LE and
TE.
2. If the elevators are mounted lock them in neutral with tape, sticks, etc,
and measure away.
Can't wait to hear other solutions to this!

How do you make sure the elev is level to the stab?
