Thanks for the fast response. The plane I am building is a Dynaflite Daydream if you wanted to look at it. The point you made about easier inspection is one thing that I was thinking about that puts the monokote hinge at an advantage. And the fact that they should be really simple to replace when they do wear out. Looking at CA hinges, I'm not sure how one would be able to replace them in the case where the hinge cracked in the middle, which according to some of my research, happens more than I would like.

This is the guide I am going to follow when I hinge my control surfaces. If you see anything in there that is wrong, or that you would do different, please let me know.
