On the Rudder, does the 913 counter balance skin go over or under the 901 rudder skin. The plan makes it hard to tell. It would seem logical to have it over so the join running is with the air flow - I am just not sure.

Paul,
look closely at drawing 7 grid f/g | 5/4 dashed lines are hidden. Not that over looked this or anything...
squeeze 'em too don't buck...

RV7 - N898DC (rsvd)
emp done, wings done finally, fuse firewall... de-burring and dimpling and countersinking
when you get to your tanks, find (on ebay) an Orndorf video showing the tank build process (RV6 works), realize the stories aren't as bad... dive in. Don't forget to visit rvproject.com

I had the same question…the plans are correct. If memory serves me correctly, the dashed line has the skin edge into the wind.

Paul,
If you look in the archives there was a discussion on this about a year ago.

Hi Paul,
The counterbalance skin goes over the left and right skins. I edge rolled the counterbalance skin to put a slight angle on it so it sits nicely flat on all edges against the skins.

Hooboy, I hope it works for you, because I think you
are incorrect in putting the counterbalance skin on
top. The plans show two areas each side that require
you to taper the edges of the CB skin, not unlike
honing a razor blade. This provides a gentle ramp for
the rudder skins to lay onto, reducing any possibility
of kinking the skin near the joint of the CB and
rudder skin. Reference Drawing 7, section G 10, and G
5

Dave is correct... the rudder skin goes OVER the counterbalance skin.
This has been brought up several times in several places, all with the
same conclusion... the dashed lines on the plans indicate the rudder
skin is on top of counterbalance skin.
If you do as Dave says and taper the counterbalance skin, as the plans
indicate, you will be surprised at how flat the rudder skin sits on top
of the counterbalance.
But hey, don't take our word for it... call Van's if you need
verification.
Good luck!
