Default sheet balsa hinging techniques -how do you do it?

I was wondering what others do to hinge sheet balsa control surfaces (rudder and elevator). I'm new to r/c 1/2A building. I'm working on a simple 400. The plan recomends hinging with thread. I'm looking for a cleaner look. The surfaces seem too thin for c/a hinges. Any suggestions? Also I was considering tape for the aleron hinges. Suggestions for the alerons are also appreciated.


Thanks, Darren
