Default Adhesive Advice

I'd like some help choosing the best adhesive for a repair. I purchased a nice Brio and after about 50 flights I noticed the gear plate assembly has started to come loose around a glue joint allowing the left side to slide around. There is no dammage to the structure so I would like to clean it up and use the right adhesive to make a permanent repair before there is some real damage done. I have repeatedly flushed the area with methanol and am relatively sure it is clean. What should I use for an adhesive? I was thinking thin CA
would do the trick as there is no gap anywhere and then maybe a gussett of exoxy with fibers. I want this to be permanant.

Your expert advise will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
RC
