Disconnect the linkage. (For the rudder
you need to take off and make some temporary horizontal hinge mounts.)
It should then stay where you put it.
If the trailing edge drops you need
weight. If the trailing edge rises you need to remove weight.

Elevators
How do you determine that the control surface is balanced? Should
the surface stay where you left it, or should it move from where ever you put
it to a level position?
