On the 640 there are 3 pieces of 1/8 aluminum hinge brakets and 16 rivets holding the rudder on. not a long piano hinge. I could see why someone might want more glue holding stuff together. I not questtioning the design. Im a new comer to this forum. if this was decided long ago please flesh it out more
What I'm looking for might be on the old matronics list.
