Just received an Arcie II for my 20th wedding anniversary gift from the wife. I have wanted a boost glider since I was in the Jr. High rocket club back in 1982....took 30 years but now I have one! At any rate, looks like there is plenty of space for 2 servo's since the sizes and weights have dropped so much since the Arcie II was designed. I have some RC plane and heli experience and would like to add elevator to the bird.
My delimma is in the way the tail is attached as it does not overhang the end of the fuselage, I cannot simply cut 1/2-1/3" section and hinge. So has anyone done this and did you simply add a section of balsa at the end of the tailplane and hinge it (cutting a notch to clear the fuse)? Ideas appreciated, pictures even better!
Oh and happy to be here!
