I drew the control horn and machined it at work on Friday. When I got home, I used my drill press like a hillbilly pin router and cut the pockets in the anti-tab ribs to fit the control horn. I glued the two ribs to the control horn on Saturday.

This blog was created to detail the construction of a French ultralight designed by Claude Piel called the Onyx. It is built with sitka spruce and aircraft grade birch plywood. I will be fitting it with a Koenig SC-430 2 stroke radial engine.

Anti-tab #5
I started tonight by cleaning up some excess glue on the anti-tab assembly. Next, I hauled my drill press inside, as it is too cold to work in the garage, and drilled mounting holes in three sections of hinges. After drilling the hinges, I drilled holes in the anti-tab spar to mount the hinges. Next, I mounted nut plates on the anti-tab spar. I finished up the night by clearancing the foam ribs of the anti-tab assembly for the nut plates.
