Yes...hobbico used hot glue to hot glue my wing together and it was an avistar.
The wing joint pulled everything apart, shear web, ribs ..you name it.
Gaps between the parts didn't help.
Then again..i was doing evasive manuver on the model which over stress the model.
I guess you're only suppost to pud pud around on a trainer..but it was an avistar with semi flat air foil..Oh well.

That why it came in HOT, less wings.
It made a cool whistling sound, thou.
I wasn't totally prepair to control a missel, otherwise i would had made a loop at least

Use Epoxy and don't be stengy with it when gluing the wing joint piece.
And you need time to makesure the rear stabelizers are aligned
then you can use the epoxy on the hinges

And you probably need to get a trainer if you're asking about using glue on your model.
Otherwise CA or hot glue would work for a 30 sec. or less flight.


I still have an greatplane ex300 arf that i havn't flown. My friend had the exact same model.
The wing ripped into pieces during flight. Due to gaps of the ribs and spar.
I cutted into my extra's wing to see...exaclty the samething at the same place with the same parts.
I got the model for only a $100 but my OS is worth a lot more than $100.

That why I build kits..if it fails..then it's the pilot error.lol
