The fast build rudder when closed out, was thicker all along the leading edge than the plans indicated. The VS main spar, made according to the plans turned out to nearly 2" too short as well as too narrow along its entire length. The VS stub spar and all 3 ribs, when made as per plan, were either too long, too short, too thick, too thin, or a combination of each! btw, mark precisely the location of the VS comm antenna cable as it runs up along the forward HS bulkhead. When you get around to drilling out the pop rivets which hold the VS skin in place, it would be very easy to drill through that cable. Angier
