I wish that manufacturers would make wing adjusters and stab adjuster like I have in my pattern planes. Would make setting up alit better and easier.

Those are more what I was looking for. I might have to give them a try. I might as well wait and see how she flies stock though

So how do you keep from loosening up or do you just adjust til set then glue?

I would think either that or Loctite the adjustments screws once it's set.

So....here's why it will be hard for me to undo the +1 degree change in the stab incidence. The Krill stab butts up against the fuse, but on the full scale there is a nice form-fitting panel covering that joint, on the top of the stab.
I will be replicating all the panels and screws for this project and wanted to do something with this area for better scale realism.
With the new incidence set, I protected the top of the stab with stick-n-seal wrapping to keep the epoxy from adhering to it. Then laid a fillet of Hysol against the fuse. Once that set up, I laid in a strip of 6oz FG cloth with thinned epoxy. After curing there was the obligatory fill, sand, fill and sand to smooth it all out against the fuse. Then trim to final shape and that part of the "form-fitting" panel is done. With the addition of panel lines and screw heads the illusion will work OK I think. The last pic shows the lines drawn on with a Sharpie.

Earle,
You need one of these to open and close your canopy.
