Default RE: Avistar assembly question

Pete1burn.. I thought you meant 2 hinges per side, not just two hinges for all
of the elevator.. Guess it was a bit easy flexing the elevator to cut the slots out
and installing the correct way???........ So now you have a total of 3 hinges?? You
still have to question the bond of your other two hinges.. Which "most" likely
will not be as strong as it should be..... Not to mention alignment...

You should really take the extra time, get some new CA hinges from a hobby
shop and replace them all correctly... Better safe than sorry!!!..
Bringing her home in a bag would not feel great, But hurting someone or even
worse...... would be tragic

When thinking about whats said above... Know that our models are like bullets
with meat grinders on the front of them... They can be very unsafe and dangerous
to yourself and people in the area if we lose control of them...
So we have to put each model together as it should be and each kept maintained
so as to do all that we can to insure that all is up to par and ready for flight....
I'm off...... B Good...
