Twin edf Airbus A320 - Horizontal stabilizer and elevator |
|
|
|
|
Horizontal stabilizer and elevator are built like a small wing on the plan.
The airfoil is NACA 0009 at the stabilizer root and NACA 0012 at stabilizer tip.
There is nothing really difficult here. All parts needed are drawn on
the plan as the holds needed to position the ribs.

As
for the vertical fin I've cut slots in the spars to precisely position
the ribs. This technique also strenghtens the whole structure.

The stabilizer is sheeted with 10/10 balsa. the elevator control surfaces are simply covered as the rudder.
