    Default Ground adjustable trim tab -rudder- Kitfox 4 Examples wanted.

    Howdy all;

    My model 4 rudder is not yet covered and I was hoping some of you could post some ideas or pics on good ways to add this trim tab, hopefully without doing welding, but still have it be effective,cheap, light and strong.

    During my build, I didn't know if I'd need to have a trim tab or not. Planning ahead, I decided to install a fastener on the rudder, take pictures for future reference and cover. Here's the photos....Hope it helps.

    Pual;

    Thanks for the pics, this is exactly the kind of idea I was looking for. This should be easy to install and work great on my model 4, plus if the tab is too small I can just screw in a larger one.

    You're very welcome......FWIW...I never did install a trim tab, but I know I always can if I want to without any problem.
