Speed alone is not the only contributing factor to flutter. Many
fast KR's do no
Absolutely. Ailerons must be balanced and if you have a very fast KR, so
should the other control surfaces. In any case, it never hurts to balance
them all.

Not much. A couple of pounds at most unless it is counter-balanced
but few are. Why do you ask?

Does anyone know how much a finished rudder weighs?

The only way to get an answer is to ask the question. :-)

Just asking Larry. I've seen both techniques and just wondered.

What is lighter, the sheathing plywood used on the fuse, or thin foam
covered in BID? I've seen some guys fill the gaps between structural
members and cover with glass. Anyone have experience with this technique?
What&#x
My personal opinion is that you need the plywood for strength. If you want
to cover it with deck cloth on top of that, then that is your choice. I
consider the glass on top of plywood as extra work and maybe extra weight.
