I love Goop/E6000 glue, it's very versatile and makes for a great bond.
|
||||
However, do remember to work with it outside, as it is not safe to breathe.
|
||||
One of the coolest things you can do with it is make hinges, for control surfaces as well as for any hatches you may have.
|
||||
|
||||
E6000 hinges are very strong (I tried tearing one by hand but couldn't, in the end I had to cut it), and very flexible (you can easily turn the hinged surface 180 degrees up or down with very little force).
|
||||
They also have almost zero play, making them ideal for control surfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's how:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Make sure your surfaces are clean and straight.
|
||||
Since you're going to make a hinge by placing a very thin layer of glue over the two pieces, the pieces need to actually be straight and contacting on the part where the glue is going to go.
|
||||
If there's a recess or groove where your elevons meet, this won't work very well because your glue layer will be too thick to bend properly.
|
||||
- [ ] Apply some masking tape parallel to the hinge line, 1 cm above and 1cm below it, so you don't get glue elsewhere on the wing.
|
||||
- [ ] Place the elevon/aileron/other control surface in position and apply some masking tape to the two ends, to hold the elevon in place.
|
||||
Take care to position it straight on both axes, the control surface should be at the same level as the wing surface across its length *and* the control surface shouldn't be deflected up or down.
|
||||
- [ ] Apply a thin layer of glue (around 1mm thin) on the top of the joint (not on both sides), and spread it evenly with a credit card or piece of paper.
|
||||
- [ ] Wait for it to dry, and you're done!
|
||||
|
||||
Because a description might be hard to follow, you can see the process in more detail [in this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ar9ttyGs1rM).
