Rudder a bit small

Just happened upon this thread - very interesting, only suggestion I would make is enlarging the rudder relative to the vertical fin, area ratio looks wrong. Hydraulically powered FBW controls would seem to be the modern approach to the flight controls, mechanically linked hydraulics is cheaper to develop, more expensive to maintain later.
