Default Thanks for input

Thanks for all your input. I've decided to use CA hinges all the way. I extended the slots to put two side by side in each one, with a small space between. I'm using 8 in each aileron, 4 in the rudder, and 4 in each elevator. Haven't decided whether to pin or not - it's difficult to imagine all those hinges pulling out. Also, I like to soft mount all my engines - should hlep reduce vibration and stress on everything.

O.S. 46FX, APC 12 1/4X 3 3/4 or 12 X 4 prop, 15% nitro.
