Can anybody see any problems with drilling 1/4 holes in the top longerons to secure my canopy hinge? I know 1/4 is a big hole to drill in the longerons but I have been using what we call "T" nuts over here for anything that I can. They are so convenient especially for places like the canopy hinge, where you can never get to the nut again. Problem is I can only get them in 1/4". I'm using 2" open width stainless steel piano hinge for the canopy and the ailerons, I know it's heavier but surely about 1lb in weight is worth saving about $300 AUD for hinges alone.
Thanks Gav
