Amazing, thought i was the only one to have this problem. 5th flight on the Yellow Cap left half of the split elevator come loose, same thing, little elevator control, changed all of mine to pinned. 
Did your original CA hinges split in half or pull out ?
One of the veteran pilots in the club says it is the vibration at idle from my engine that probably weakened the CA hinges and caused them to split at the hinge line. Maybe a softmount for my 160FX.
