Never been up in a HRII but have seen a few and they are beautiful just sitting there!

Be aware the early tail kits had elevators and rudders skinned with .016 skins, for a rocket you should use .020. Van has these.

My Rocket has RV4 tail feathers with .020 moving surfaces. Works great and I have plenty of pitch authority right down to minimum controllable flying speeds. My strip is 1900' with trees, so I fly final at 68 knots with no problems.
The .020 skins have held up well, my Rocket is 10 years old, the 9th to fly.
