RE: Questions on CA Hinges
My Ultimate 1.60 (43cc Fuji) 30%+/- came with CA hinges and that's what I used to hinge it.
Might be interesting to ask of those who have had fiber hinge failures whether they balance their props and spinners? Vibration will stress any material and stress causes failure. And a model should be flown on a fast low pass occasionally to listen for flutter, as well as a pre-flight to spot signs (opening of the holes in control horns or servo arms from vibration). About 20 seconds of aileron flutter will also do in a CA hinge, so if you're overpowering the model and underthinking when to reduce throttle it could have fatal results.
You don't blame a $50 Michelin tire that fails because you're doing 150 mph down the highway and it ripped apart. That's misuse of product. If you over-engine you should over-hinge and over-control linkage. That's just common sense.
