I don't have much preference between DuBro and Sig.  In my opinion they're both better than the Great Planes hinges.  I take the pins out and use one long piece of music wire per surface to pin the hinges -- that way I can test-fit things in bare wood, disassemble for paint, reassemble, etc. -- it's also handy for crash repair.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

 I've always used Du-Bro, haven't ever found a reason to use anything else.

Nothing wrong with Brodak hinges.
