Default radio south hinges

I just got a pack of Radio South CA hinges and they are about 1/2 the width of other ca hinges Ive used. (Great Planes, Sig). I bought them cause Ive read that people relly like them but Im a little nervous about using them since they are so narrow.

Depends on what you're using them on. They make bigger sizes for
larger airplanes. Ask for 1/4 scale hinges. They are very good hinges.

Redrum, Tommy is right, ask for the 1/4 scale hinges. If you want to go ahead and use the ones you have just double them up, side by side, or install extra hinges between where the slots are already cut. If you double them side by side and leave a very small gap there would be no need to drill a hole in the slot to help with wicking the CA into place.
