What have you done and what results have you got ? 



Wing strut atttach point fairings >?



Gas Cap fairings ?



Gap covers?  -  Horiz stab

                    - under turtle deck where flapperon goes to bushing.



Rad Scoop --  gain or loss? 



Round cowl  -  air exits too small ?



Wingtips -- I have droop tips and no complaints -- would try another tip but show me what I will gain or lose.

Where did you get the droop tips Dave ?   Can you post some pictures of them ?   I ask because they are not being offered as an option with the new kits.
