Default Broken CA hinge

Ya know, Mike, I was thinking about something like that, but I wasn't sure how to implement it. I did put some clear "packing tape" on both sides of the broken hinge area, and although it sealed the gap it didn't provide any support to the aileron. I thought about the weave process, but the adhesive needs to change sides so I didn't go any further.

The other advantage to your suggestion is that if the color swaps on the two sides, its not a problem.

Thanks, I'll be doing that repair before the day's over!
