Default Hardware on the Hurricane

My Hurricane is one of the older ones.
Although I like the cool anodized aluminum bits I did not like the quality of clevises , two of which broke during installation.
Also did anybody have difficulty with the pre-made tail brace wires?
Mine were a bear to make fit and were of dubious quality. In fact, one set on the bottom was short by One and1/2 inches. The clevises were soldered closed on the top set and had to be heated up to get them open. It is easier,quicker and better to make your own tail braces than to deal with what's provided.
The model itself seems to be made very well and is covered nice too. I'm sure it will fly well.
Some of the supplied CA hinges were cut almost through somehow..I replaced 'em.
Now to decide..Moki 1.8 or S.T.3250?
