Garry V. Laznicka – asked:

 

What is the weight of your RUDDER?

 

Garry,

 

I’m still building my 320/360.  Bought the kit in 1992!!  Expect to fly it this year.

 

My rudder weighs 14 pounds (using bathroom scale).  I have installed a MAC servo actuated trim system and have a position/strobe installed.  I used 73.4 oz of lead plus the weight of the flox for counter weight in the horn.  I maximized the use of the space by cutting some of the lead into shavings to use as filler. I don’t know how much lead is added to the hinge line area.
