Jim..... with regard to the heavy left wing let me offer an opinion.
Before you make the changes fly the plane straight and level and while doing
so look at your ailerons. Try to tell if they are both in the same
relative position.... or is one up and the other down....
If the ailerons are both in the neutral position, you would be better with a
trim tab....
However if on the (heavy wing) the aileron is down, then increasing the
incidence on the heavy wing Or decreasing the incidence on the light wing
would be the correct thing to do. This will cause the ailerons to both fly
in the neutral position...
You could ask me how I know....
Instead of buying the adjustable universal mounts... I modified mine by
welding a very small bead on one side of the 1/2 inch mounting hole and
filing out the other side. I increased the incidence on one and decreased
it in the other.... it flew hands off but the ailerons were out of the
neutral position.... I later bought another original set and installed
them and installed a trim tab... now things fly hands off and ailerons are
in the neutral position,
I still have the modified mounts in the shop (I think) if you want to try.
