Martin Harris - Moderator Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Robart pin hinges can be used in many ways - are you trying to replicate the full size Frise ailerons? They will do this or you can angle them to top hinge surfaces. Edited By Pete B - Moderator on 23/07/2015 08:21:27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 That's got me wondering - how will you use them Nigel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Herron Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Hi Martin I note from your pics you have a cub well I've just acquired one from my brother-in-law 2.5 mtr w/s Kolt KG22 engine and in need of a little restoration and tlc,engine troubles keeps cutting out, broken undercarriage with missing springs and spring retention missing, so some lathe work to do on the suspension, cockpit upper door blown off on his last flight and not recovered so a new one to be manufactured. As the old doors where a taped hinges i will use the canopy hinges Pat put me onto last night. i will set up some pics but the Chippy will have to wait, as there still a lot more to do on that than the Cub. nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatMc Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Nigel, if you haven't already ordered from HK there's a a few sites on Ebay that sell hatch hinges [Search in "Toys & Games"] but free postage. I say this because HK's postage costs are sometimes OOT for small parts. Edited By PatMc on 23/07/2015 11:03:28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
