Proseal,

If you make a .020 tab instead you can always adjust it a bit.

And you can make its trailing edge flush with the rudder trailing edge as it
will never need to be bent/adjusted to the other side.

Do bond it across at least one stringer.

Subject: Rudder Trim Tab Material?

Hey all...looking for some bright ideas on a trim tab. I made one out of
wood.
A wedge shape. Taped on the rudder and nailed the size and location...pure
luck. Anyway, what have others seen that would look very clean and work
well?
How did you fasten it? I was thinking of a solid piece of machined
alluminum,
but not sure how to mount it on the skin.
