Thanks All,
I have decided (out of fear) to do what Outcast has suggested - install Hinge Points or pinned hinges. My CAP 232 has well over 100 flights on it and I was lucky to get it on the ground safely.
There was no offense taken on the lack of CA on the hinges comment - I had a friend stick the ARF together for for a service charge! You can bet I will be tugging on all surfaces after each flight!
Thanks again for all the suggestions.
