It sounds like you used whats known as a standard CA glue hinge and thin CA glue should be used it install them, anything else won't soak in and penetrate and have a good bond. Also other types of glues can make a CA hinge stiff and break just when you don't want it to.

I think if I was you I would do some pull tests on the moving surfaces to see if anything pulls out on the ground before you try to fly.
When I say a pull test I mean pull on things good, not just a light 2 fingered pull and think all is well. From what you have described here I would be very leary of the hinges
holding.
