I use the landshorter.com ones. I noticed right off the bat that I had a more stable flight in rough conditions, put in the right spot, 10percent of the cord back, no decrease in top speed. I did notice that my turns are like on rails, steep turns are fantstic. I can do a 60 mph 90degree bank with lots of elevator and no stall, it will shake, but not drop out. Of course the big thing is to keep coordinated in flight. Another thing I do that is way cool, don't know if the vg do anything, is a runway run just off stall, I can go back and forth over the runway, 150ft wide runway, and touch down while doing it in different spots with the greatest of ease. I've graduated to doing this flat winged, meaning no bank, way fun. flat turns are fun and happen real easily, this helps out if there is traffic and you want to see around you, just opposite aileron and put a bunch of rudder in for the direction of turn, flat wing and turn your baby. pretty cool and fun as well. people on the ground get pretty impressed and if you have a passenger thay think it's pretty weard.
