Hi, I am about to glue my rudders in on my V3 and I keep looking at those small pin hinges and tend to agree with you. I honestly think that they will be ok as there are not tremendous forces on the rudders. However, this is a jet and even though it is not a speed demon, I fell better going that one step further if possible. I am going to use regular Robart Hinges on mine if they look like they will fit ok. If you want, I can let you know what I think after trying it.</p>
I installed Robarts on everything.

Heres a few pics of mine for grins. I couldnt be any happier with my V3 its def a huge improvement over the V2 I had and i was very satisfied with it as well. Henry has started a revolution of sorts, people who never would have thought of having a turbine are jumping right in.



Thanks for pics. What wheel wells did you use? And how about some bottom pics of the gear.

I used the wheel wells that came with the kit just painted them black and white to match. I don't have pics of the bottom, I'll take some when I get home.

So I called Todd at Dreamworks. Very nice of him to take time out to look at RCU and very nice to offer the correct tiller. You don't get this service very often.
