Never use CA on a pinned type hinge.....always use epoxy.....I use vasoline to keep the glue out of the hinge pivot...and I cut a small recessed area to allow for the pivot to insert a little so you don't have a big gap between the control surface and the aircraft
Pretty much me too. I use oil on the hinge center section then use expanding gorilla glue. I drill a hole in the center of the hinge slot to squish the glue into the slot. I also cover the covering area around the hinges with some oil so the GG can peel off the covering if it expands too much. Sure wish Pacer would bring back there hinge glue. That was easy to work with and didn't make a mess like GG or epoxy. I have some new syringes for epoxy use and may start using epoxy again.
