Still, I don't see the point ! Does the real plane use Robart hinges ? I doubt it ! At this size, why be 40 times stupid per aileron, when 2 or 4 REAL hinges would certainly be enough !

I read this guys posts here on RCU. I was in San Antonio before, and quite active, I don't remember having ever meet him. He can live his fantasy, that's his problem but this kind of realisation, in my point of view, has nothing to do with our hobby, does not bring anything new, is by no means a technological achievment, while the big Galaxy is. At least, at 75%, he could have made it scale !
