small pointer lasers, each taped onto an elevator half, could work. Turn them
on and let them point at some kind of screen against a wall. A 17x24"
piece of quadruled vellum might make a good screen. Accurate positioning
of the lasers is critical but shouldn't be too bad for a real pattern
animal. Haven't tried it myself tho, so take it with a big grain of salt.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

The level has a magnetic base and you can pivot it up & down on that base. Now, for the anhedral stab it might work well if you sight it at the root, then adjust up or down to site a mid point, then again at the tips of the elevators. Seems plausible anyway. Radio Shack was dumping these at half price for a while, not sure if you can still find them there. Ed -----Original Message----- From: <a

style='font-size:10.0pt;color:black'> get any great answers so I thought I would try here. Does anyone have a good method for comparing the throw of both elevator halves on anhedral stabs? With a regular stab I use a 15 inch piece of 1/8 carbon fiber rod on each elevator meeting behind the rudder and compare their track with movement of the elevator stick. This is much more accurate to me, than clip on throw meters or ruler measurements. With anhedral stabs the two rods will separate as you give up elevator and come together and cross with down elevator. I guess you can measure the height of the end of the rod from the table at different positions but does anyone have a better method?
