+=== Build Instruction Updates ===
-* The suggested hole to bring the tail light cable into the fuselage is above the bottom rudder hinge in OP-56. In the obsolete RV-10 electrical wiring instructions (OP-37), the hole was shown below the hinge. Many builders have used the lower hole placement without issues, seems a tie what is better.

+*A tail light is not needed if the wing tips have white rear position lights as on the Aveo Ziptips.  See CFR title 14 volume 1 section 23.1385 (c): Rear position light. The rear position light must be a white light mounted as far aft as practicable on the tail '''or on each wing tip'''.
