All good points, but i need to know as well as mahoney 45 on the dubro hinge you cut the slot, insert hinge, and the put ca in slot, or drill holes, and pin the thing or just exactly what?
If you use flat hinges, then glue the hinges into the control surface first. Let them dry and then attach the control surfaces. I always use toothpicks to pin the hinges in place. Drill a 5/64" hole and push in the toothpick. Trim it flush with the surface and then put a drop of thin CA on it. You can cover it with little circles of covering made using a hole punch (put covering between two pieces of paper to make it punch better) or you can color over it with a marker.
You do all this AFTER the airframe is covered. Did this answer your question? If not, what else do you still need to know?
