Default RE: Best way to join split ailerons?

That is true. Or, you can lay them down on top of one long piece of aileron stock and cut new ones. Or, you could join them with CA. I would use fiberglass, though. You'll be getting pretty thick there in teh middle. Instead, consider using small brass tubing glued into place holding the two together. Drill a small hole in each aileron, and slip the brass tube into the hold (like a wing joiner), and epoxy together. You'll not have any problems at all with that setup. However, remember that now you have a large surface, so a little more servo will be required.
