Its a little temperamental when compared to the super glues, but its also durable and easy to work with. You can find it in any "automotive" isle and, worst case, at any auto parts store. And, its pretty cheap. 
I've had good results using it on 1/118th scale die casts and even on some plastic models. |
Sure, I always try to use a thread locker on metal to metal connections like that. But the issue here is that with an RC model it is often necessary to remove the control surfaces to fix something or make adjustments and with a metal to plastic connection the plastic WILL eventually wear out from use. So a metal to metal, ie a small screw and nut, will be much more durable and reliable.
