HS Tip Fairings Done

Published by olanandkate on

The horizontal stabilizer tips are now finished. It took a bit of getting over the fear of messing up the parts to start but I did it LOL. I formed foam to get the right shape to the outside layer. I wrapped it with AC duct tape but I forgot to put the mold release spray on it. Luckily the epoxy didn’t really stick to the aluminum tape so it took some time but it came free. I then put two layers on the inside to stiffen the the back side and it turned out excellent!

I’ve now started forming the vertical stabilizer tip which wasn’t too terribly bad but is taking some work to get it done. Hopefully I can get that finished next week so that I can then put some bondo or whatever to smooth the surface and then prime these parts before installing them permanently.
