Default Hinges for 3D

Hey guys,

Just my two cents here but with the types of planes you all are flying(40 sized profiles) i have found that a sewn on hinge is the best bet too get a really strong hinge that will allow very free movement at more than 90 degres throw!! I have been flying these type of planes for a long time now and also fly the stick and boom unlimited competition planes and i ONLY trust sewn on hinges now. I have had too many CA type hinges break and i have not found any easier type of hinge to do that gives so little resistance when moving the control surface. Plus they are free....always a plus
