The elevators of the ES are flat, so I'm guessing the other models have flat airfoils on the elevators too.  I checked with Tim Ong and he told me the airfoil design is flat.

Take a look in Abbott and Doenhoff, "Theory of Wing Sections". There are
plenty of airfoils with concave shape for the aft 25% of the section,
especially the symmetrical ones. It's the airfoil shape. If you fill it in,
you are changing the airfoil shape and no longer have the design airfoil.
