What are you suppose to use for the hinges when adding ailerons? I am getting ready to do this modification but need some advice on hardware to use..
TIA

I'm with WearTheFoxHat. Thoes hinges work great.
I think pvt means he uses paper clips for the control rods.

I used simillar on my cub. Be careful not to get CA where it hinges  Heres a tip. If you find one thats a little stiff straight out of the packet, heat up your soldering iron and touch the metal pin for a couple of seconds, then work the hinge. It frees up nicely. |

The best thing I've found for gluing those hinges so far is epoxy. Make sure you pack some vaseline into the hinge point before hand. This will not allow epoxy or glue into that joint.
PS...I used CA hinges on my 2 and they work great.
