> "Could you build up the area under the holes with epoxy/flox or something similar so it would be level with the surface of the belly board when it's tight against the bottom of the fuselage?"
It appears on my belly board that Ken Cottle took the circles of wood cut out of the belly board when he cut the holes with a hole saw (I'm assuming), and epoxied them to the bottom of the fuselage so with the board retracted it is a flush surface. Looks like Larry Flesner cut his holes with scissors so that won't work if you use scissors. When I first got the plane and was experimenting with things I covered the holes with packing tape to see if I could tell any difference. I think it seemed to work better without the holes but was probably just my imagination. Far more important than whether the board has holes or not is whether it can be extended to something approaching 90?. Flying Jim Morehead's KR with it's excellent belly board was several orders of magnitude better than mine which only goes down 35 or 40 degrees.
