Default RE: NitroPlanes - MQ-9 REAPER

Thanks E-Man, I just found the extra hinges and decided to use them as they were more
flexible than I had thought. I used four on the aileron and three on the flap. I used thin Zap
CA and wicked it on each hinge, top & bottom of the wing, only after the moving surfaces are
attached. With this method, the CA wicks evenly throughout the entire hinge material at
the same time, making a much stronger bond and a better flexing hinge.
