Default RE: unhinging control surfaces

Ok Crash: After looking at your aileron installation, my approach to removing the flight control would be: move the aileron down, and using a dremel thin cutoff wheel, cut the hinge apart carefully without doing any damage to the airframe. With the aileron remove, you can decide to either remove the hinge parts by soaking, etc, or just mold each section to the shape of the pivot edges. Install new hinges where they will support the aileron best.
