Default Comp-ARF 3.3 Yak Question

Hey,
To you guys who own one of these airplanes, can you answer me a question? My 3.1 super-X has 15 Phenolic Hinge plates in the tail (5 per stab and 5 on the Rudder). Can you tell me if the 3.3 yak is the same?
Regards,
Rick

Hi Rick

The SuperXtra does have 5 and the 3.3M has only 4 per Elevator.

Here is a link to a build thread on my 3.3m

Hey Thanks Ian,
I would have thought that the 3.3 would have had as many or more. I guess the flutter problems with the 3.1 led to an additional phenolic hinge point? Only 4 plates on each elevator half of the 3.0 as well.
Regards,
Rick

I didn't measure the Thickness of the Phenolic on either model but Flutter is no problem on either for me.

Of all the machines I have ever Flown the 3.3m is at the Top of the food chain.
