ok guys, after reading thru eleven hundred some odd post, (took me about three days) I had to go buy a UCD 46. I have a question about a building point I'm at. I really didn't want to use the supplied CA hinges on the ailerons, and I had some dubro pinned hinges laying around. I figure I will feel a little more secure this way. My question is, should I use epoxy/thin CA when I slide them into the wood or none at all? I used a toothpick as a pin and no glue on a tester and it seemed to work pretty well. Just thought I'd get other peoples' opinion.
BTW.....I have an enya .80 lined up for it, WHAT DO YOU THINK????
THANKS!!!!

I used Du-Bro pinned hinges. Used epoxy to hold them in. Didn't use any toothpicks or anything for extra strength, and haven't had one come loose after 74 flights. Er, except for that inverted rudder drag I tried...
