This elevator was much lighter than the original. Though I did not weigh them to compare, my priority was strength and then weight. I built my elevator in two pieces because the previous owner had cut the elevator spar off center to make the airplane unflyable. that is why I decided to build a new elevator and a friend of mine suggested the new construction method as seen in this video.
Beautiful job fellas. I'm watching all I can on these kr2s videos and saving them for when I start building my own pretty soon. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching and if you have any questions let me know... Luis
How's it coming?
What is the overall weight of this elevator compared to the original elevator design?
