Default RE: Funtana 90 and CA hinges

HI guys, As I explained in a seperate post in this forum, I'm presently in Asia and do not have access to the internet much. I wont be back in the office till the 29th. Till then I cant respond regularily. Not "dis"ing the thread.

However I am respectfully disagreeing with some of the comments. IMO, the issues I have seen relulted from aileron flutter whilc im many cases on many airplanes can very quickly transition into a destructive wing flutter. Thats the down side to building a very ligthweight airframe. Of those of you here who have had wings break, what serrvos were you using/what torque tariung were you using on ailerons?
We did recently make a change to the aileron servo mount to strengthen it so that it isnt so easily broken with shipping, handling etc.
