Test of Vert Stab and rudder alignment. Decided to fit a small wood wedge to build up the top of the vert stab so the ngle of the rudder aligns.

You sure you don't have the rudder up side down in the picture??

I'll have to double check now you have said that .. lol

I'm in Europe atm so don't have access to the plans ... But just checking the photos of successful flying pietenpols the more acute angle is at the base ... so my orientation in the photo is correct.

Look's like you are on the right track and the fix is easy enough. Your build looks rather nice
