Ok, thanks! I'll go with the CA hinges and save myself the work. Thanks for the rudder tip. Maybe I'll just build that right in.

On a related note: I'm new to pattern (flew controlline precision aerobatics for years) so I have some general questions.

How is the longevity of Venus II or ARF's in general? Anything I should beef up? Do you bother to glass the center joint of the wing?

And as I will be flying sportsman this year, is the O.S. 91FX ok? Or should I spend the extra dough and go for the 120AX... I did read your excellent review on the Tower site Jon, but I wonder if I will notice the difference at this stage in my journey. It sounds like it's easier to balance with the 91.

Thanks,

Jim
