Default hinges

the hinges i prefer for jet models are the Hay's hinges... #105.. i think... the are nylon hinges, non-pinned very much like a typical c/a hinge.. scuff them up & glue with epoxy. The work great for wings & stabs that are kinda thin on the trailing edge. Have used & seen used in everything from Top-Gun F-15's to BVM Agressors III's & Vipers... they can handle the speeds & loads... On the larger modes I like to use the the Robart hinges.... my .0002 cents worth...
