Gday Bill,
I just dug out this old post cause I'm getting ready to try some such experiments. Could you elaborate more of what effects you felt and if you think there may possibilities there??
Also any more info you have on those 'fences' that Bob Jones did. I understand there's a few such mods on various aircraft flying around in Alaska.
I've already made slip-on square wingtips to see if those Hoerner tips as done on the 701 really do the job they're claimed. At the same time I'd like to try some different versions of fences and winglets. My aircraft will be in the workshop for a month while I do some other mods for carrying a bicycle, etc., so it's a good chance to make up some different wingtips.
Hoping you are getting some good spring weather already.
Cheers,
JG

I don't like talking about what I'm gonna do until I've done it and confirmed that it works. That little snippet slipped out by accident..... My project is fairly involved and quite a bit to do yet, but it's looking good so far. I'll post the results when it's all done, in about a month.
In the meantime, have a look at the 701 Builders Forum on Yahoo. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/701builders/ In a posting yesterday, Ted Jula tells about real long distance travel he's done in a 701 with a folding bike. No major mods needed and works well for him.
