Something like those. Might be able to get them local if you got some nice rc shops around, but more than likely you will have to buy them online or rob them from a crashed china plane you got laying around since you only really need 4-6 of them depending on how fast you think you will be traveling with this plane.

I would recommend hinges over tape of any type. especially on the slick depron like material used on this plane that lets go of tape very quickly.
and the medical tape only creates resistance which is not wanted on any flatfoil model.

Thank you very much. I think I have some of those lying around in my shop.

I've added front ailerons on mine although I've yet to fly it should be fun 😜

Mixed from the rudder ch4 with rates on a switch.
