I decided to install the autopilot bracket at this stage of the build. I ordered both pitch and roll servo brackets from Dynon, and picked it up yesterday. The instruction is straight forward, the only thing is to make sure the bracket distance from the elevator arm (3.43" called out in the drawing coming with the bracket). I chose to trim off the optional bottom flange of the bracket.

I had to drill out three rivet on top to fit the bracket flush with the web. I plan to use four rivets on the lower end, and trim off the bottom flange

The bracket is primed and riveted. The bottom flange is trimmed off
