Default Sonic Tronics scale hinges

I would like to know what anyone thinks of the scale hinges by Sonic Tronics. I think that they look pretty strong and would work well since I already have slots cut for similar hinges. Does anyone have any positive or negative experiences?

Thanks,
Herb

They are fairly cheesey compared to the BVM hinges, and the over center feature is highly suspect, I tried it (once)

The robart metal hinges are pretty nice BTW

I have used those "bomb bay" door hinges on my Grumman F7F Tigercat and they work great. my sug. to you is only use 2 per door. Three on one side is a bear to line up. They are not BVM quality but they are just fine . Greg
