Default Robart Hinge Installation: dos and dont's

I would like to try Robart Hinges. I've watched and read the video on how to do this on the "how to" section of RCU.
I bought a Robart Drill Jig to aid me in this.
I would like to hear from folks who have done this on things to avoid or any more helpful hints. I plan on using polyurethane glue as per the how to article.
One newbie question: I assume the drill jig is to aid in centering the holes. I only have a hand held drill. Does the drill jig also guide the drill so as to make the hole parallel to the wing line? My concern is the hole could get a little off when drilling it. This could cause the hinge to be up/down/left right when it's installed.
Thanks,
Mike
