Default RE: Vectorflight Edge 540 build

Here's another update.

I cut out the CA hinges in the wings/ailerons and replaced them with Robart Hinge Points. I used 5 Hinge Points per wing. It may be a bit overkill, but with the power of the Saito 120 up front, I would rather be safe than sorry.

rcfury, at first I did just the nylon bolt into the root ribs. I wasn't sure if the ribs could handle any stress back there so that is why I used the nylon bolts-in-the-dowel design. Let us know how well the bolts into the root ribs alone hold up.

Gotta get some sleep. Later guys.
