“1. Remove aileron then center all CA hinges in place. Apply tiny epoxy in the torque rod hole then install the aileron. Secure all hinges with thin CA glue. After cures, make sure aileron moves freely.”
- The aileron sticks a bit on the torque rod. Patient jiggling will eventually see it loose.
- Sometimes pushing the aileron onto the hinge will force it back into the wing. To make sure the hinge stays centred, use a pin. When the aileron is on, pull the pin out and glue.
- Don’t go overboard with the epoxy otherwise it will be squeezed out and bind the aileron.
