Default GP Giles202 .46 kit ailerons

I have completed the GP Giles 202 .46 kit and a friend of mine who has been building and flying RC airplanes many years advised that I change the aileron horn connection to thru bolts instead of the screws. What is your advice?

Thanks.

There are many ways to attach control horns. The way the kit does it works quite well when it's properly-done. Many people prefer horns with the through-bolts. It's really the modeler's choice.
