Bob, have you read my ''Closer Look'' article on CA Hinges?

Mike,
Great article, thanks.
I should have been more clear about the
Arf I refered to. It was Pre hinged and only
one Aileron hinge spit in to.
I admit I was putting a lot of stress on the hinges
also. I was doing Cuban 8's and Hammer head turns
and such. I noticed there was something different at
the top of loops and when i rolled. After landing I checked
the plane over and found the hinge had spilt.
I repaired at home and been flying it even harder and no problems.
btw, I saved your articles for future reference.
Bob
