For the Roncz incidence template for a MK IV, you can get that on Marc Zeitlin's website, under Cozy Newsletter #80.

I know but I was hoping to find one built that I could borrow. I have been trying multiple times to print ones off the internet and Cant seem to get the correct sizing of the print out.

By the way, the Berkut guys found that there can be a kind of "null" in pitch if you don't get the gap between elevator and canard exactly right - so Dave Ronneberg has a very good template for that gap too...

No it's about a foot long, with the elevator bottom and the gap as a kind of tooth sticking up between canard and elevator.

Im not sure how that would help me at this stage since my elevator hinges are mounted already. Wouldnt that be a tool for mounting the hinges??
And Am I to assume nobody on this forum has canard incidence template for loan? Did everyone guess the incidence or just eyeball it???

See:

under #80 - you can download the template and fabricate it yourself.
You're welcome.

Thanks Marc. But how are we able to confirm 1:1 printing from that? I have tried this before as well as another site member tried to help and we could not get a correct 1:1 print.
Also Dave Orr, How can I borrow this Elevator rigging tool you mention? I need to re-install my elevator hinges I do not know anybody at Berkut.

I'm no expert but do the corner angles show a reference distance of 8" apart so you can scale up/down accordingly? Regards Steve
