Halcon Build Log - Rudder

Rudder

The slots of the rudder by the kit are too big for the hinges, so I have to scratch build one. I made it from three 5mm square strips by stacking up them and shaping.

Making slots.

Next, I made the hinges from the photo etch pieces provided by the kit. I've also made myself a simple jig to create the shape of hinge.



And finished them using pliers.


Creating rudder 'hole'.
