Does anyone have a good method to get the 1/32″ depression in the foam at the ends of the canard?
Put tape along edge of where the depression is to end and use a long sanding block. The tape serves to protect the foam outside the depression. 10.11 – When using Canard Contour Checking Template E, why is there a gap between the template and the foam core at the trailing edge? (Why does the checking template E not match the hot wire templates A/B)? Cozy Newsletter #53, Builder Tip #7 suggests that template A/B be modified at the trailing edge to increase elevator up travel. If this change was made to hot wire templates A/B, then Checking Templates E and F must also be adjusted accordingly. If they are not, the bottom Checking Template (E) will show a gap to the foam at the trailing edge, and the top Checking Template (F) will show interference.
