Maybe they hadn't figured that out yet, you know this was really early technology at work..

I'm with Chris on the Wicker, gives it that laid back casual feel of aerial combat.
Love this plane it's looks so basic as opposed to the later byplanes, but as I understand it performed very well. Want to build one in the future but was afraid of the large amount of rigging, so your sbs will be a great help! Thanks
Looking great Terry. I tried answering at work, but it didn't take. The spring would be for compensation of the prop wash spiraling down the fuselage and hitting the rudder at high throttle / low speed settings. This would cause the tail to deflect. At higher speed the effect is less pronounced as the airflow straightens out somewhat, but still there. This spring would lessen aircrew fatigue. I think they quickly went to adjustable vertical stabs that do not sit straight, but slightly off to air flow. Or at least that's my understanding.
Anyways beautiful work Terry and looking forward to more.

Looking good Terry
Looking at the rigging of the DH-2, I finaly understand where the term "Fly By Wire" comes from :idonno
