My first question is what type of hinges did you use and what kind of glue are we talking here?????.
As far as flying wires go, I did not use them on this particular model, but I may should have with the big 4 stroker in the nose, they do shake some at idle and could create a problem, Flying wires help stop and flutter you may get from high speeds, larger 4 stroke engines and abrupt manuevers which put extra strain on the horizonal stab. I have lost a couple of planes in the day due to not having the wires in place.
as far as I know the plane doesn't need them for all practical purposes with a Smaller end engine 90-91 2 stroke.
allot of the time if I need some tail weight I will add the flying wires to help with the balance instead of just glueing in some lead inside the fuse, Looks allot better plus has a function to boot.


(Off subject) Now if you ever build a GB Sukhoi I strongly recommend the flying wires on that plane.
Course maybe the 160 FX I have in it may have something to do with why *LOL*
