Mod - Teflon hinges, click bond hinge screws and hidden rudder belhorn.

For more hidden bellhorn installation, see more photos in my Chapter 20 section.

Traced around the head of a click bond using the original hinge screw hole.   Then used the dremel router attachment to counter sink the click bond head.   The click bond heads were roughed up and notched before glassing in.  A wooden block was drilled to hold the click bonds in place and aligned.
2 BID and peel ply over the click bonds.  Wooden blocks were drilled and placed on the inside temporarily to hold the click bonds in place.

Mod - Belly brake - hidden screw heads.

The click bonds we get from CG products are only 1/2" long.   A few of the screws on the hinge and the actuator's pad need to be longer.   There are suppliers available but I opted to take the screws to a grinder, flatten the heads, put some flat edges on them, recess the holes and floxed them in.
