Sorry that you got a bad one Kdunlap. All I can comment on is my Zero, and all of the hinges seem to be well aligned and move freely. Gluing the hinges will be one of my first steps in the build, so I'll find out soon if they are aligned properly.
My friend has two Mustangs, and both seem to be hinged correctly as well. We were really impressed with the wing and wing tube fit. That's an area that's even harder to correct than hinges. Even when they put out good quality for the most part, much of the stuff from China can still struggle with having consistent quality on every unit sent out. At least in this case you get to deal with Mike at GatorRC, he's a good guy to deal with. Compare with years past when we ordered CMP kits from Nitroplanes, you were pretty much on your own.
