Just one thing with regard to those PINNED hinges. CHECK THEM NOW!

I fly the phoenix sukhoi with a .46 irvine, and my left aileron came off during normal relaxed(if flying a sukhoi can ever be called relaxing) flying.

By hook or by crook I got it down safely, and found that the pins had fallen out and the aileron hinges were not glued in at all. Ok, there was a bit of glue on one side of two of the hinges, but that is just scary, man...

So just check yours, I might have just received the dud plane... but better safe than sorry...
