Dear Gentlemen,
here I am to report about my last (and first) medium/big project and ask for some advises.
I'll post just few pics to introduce the 'problem'.
I decided to lighten the stock fins (1/4" birch ply) and fill the holes with balsa cores in order to save weight and let the composite reinforcement do all the job of withstanding flight stresses.
Here are the fins from stock to beveled and lightened.
