Default RE: CA hinges came loose.


ORIGINAL: w8ye

I've been told that if the CA type hinge breaks at the pivot point, you have too much CA externally on the hinge pivot area.

Also flutter will break them in the pivot area. If the outer aileron hinge is breaking suspect flutter.

very true, sometimes too much of a good thing is bad
