Love to build RV vertical stabilizer and rudders. A bit of advice, spend lots of time on the counterbalance/ front fairing clearance and avoid a horrible scraping noise when you move the rudder back and forth. A friend told me about that.....Restarted my emp build, lcp free! After not building since March of 2023 and having already done through chapter 10 with lots of lcp, I've restarted from scratch with non lcp parts. It was good to get building again! I made my choice to restart after getting news that my QB fuse and wings were going to be lcp free (mine were in OR in July and August 2023, but I guess were scrapped or are being redone without lcp). So for a small ish $2400, I got all new emp parts. I did save my steel parts, wiring, fiberglass etc, so really just aluminum parts were reordered. Happy building!

Man that BBQ looks amazing! I didn’t do the “$100 hamburger” run but I spent last weekend checking the low pitch blade stop on my MT 3 blade. I wasn’t having any issues but after watching Vic Syracuse’s you tube video I decided I should probably check it. Also read some articles about overspeeding the engine from what I assumed to be governor failures. Not something I wanted to ops check on a new engine. And yes I am now a subscriber to Vic’s YouTube channel, he has some good stuff on there."$100 BBQ" run to Idabel, Ok. Phat Tabs and smoked pork cracklings.
