I have two options for the ailerons. The first is similar to my Mick Reeves spitfire, with a hinge at the top of the surface and a ball joint in the middle of the moving surface.
The second option is to do away with conventinal model hinges and to incorporate a steel rod along the entire length of the aileron attached to the wing by 1/8 ply bearers. A control horn is then soldered to the steel bar within the aileron.
This is the one to go for. With the exception of the wing skinning. Take the wing skin over the front of the aileron. This is best to be done in ply. or fibreglass sheet.
