Default Vector Flight Edge 540?

The bottom of the wings is almost all white.

They used to fit hinges at the factory, but decided that people wanted to fit their own choice of types, so they now leave it to us.

I have fitted Robart pin hinges on everything and they went in easily.

The aileron is the type that doesn't have a 'V' cut in its leading edge to allow movement, but an angle going all the way to the top edge, so the wing / aileron joint on the top of the wing looks like a continuous surface, and the underside has the gap to allow movement.
