I am trying to get back into the swing of things and have a couple of projects I am working on.

The first of which is a little Cox Pee Wee 020 powered tether plane I am converting to  control line.

Changes I have made:

Moved the stab back to allow elevator control without having to use a joiner for the separate elevator halves.

Added a little subfin in the back. I love subfins and just couldn't help myself. Every time I looked at the plan it just looked like it needed one.

Made a decision on where to hinge the elevator and divided the two components.

Omitted the dowel for the tether

Changes I might make or will make:

Since I have no 1/16 ply (and won't for a while) I am going to find a substitute a material to take its place. This is my biggest hold up for now.

Move the CG back some!!! Balance as shown on plan is ahead of the firewall.

Being a biplane Seems there is some sort of rule that the spacing between upper and lower needs to be greater that the wing chord?
I might need clarification on that.
The plan has the spacing to be 1 3/8" and the wing chord is 2 3/4". I guess that is fine for tether and suppose it would fly anyways but might be better to increase the distance?

Add C/L control.
Not sure where I want the bellcrank location or leadouts just yet.
Suggestions?
I might even omit the bellcrank! I know a way! Still has to have a leadout location.
Can an adustable leadout be made light and small short of drilling a bunch of holes and having to redo the leadout lines each time?

Any thoughts or comments are welcome and appreciated.
