I checked out these links, and the one Gavin Mcgill posted, and it looks
like this would be incredibly easy to do, but a couple of questions come to
mind.
Which model of double sided tape do you use. My guess would be the high
performance stuff that bonds to plastic and painted surfaces.

Has anyone here got a lead on where I can buy Mylar for the aileron gap

Aileron gap seals are very simple to make. You simply get some Mylar wide
enough and long enough to cover the gap and apply it to the bottom of the
wing with 3M double sided tape. Her are the links to where you can buy what
you need. You can paint this Mylar if you wish to. I installed mine in

Ever wanted to seal those gaps on your ailerons or even your rudder and
horizontal stabilizer? Troy Petteway has proven performance can be greatly
enhanced, especially your climb performance, if you close the gaps on the
bottom of your ailerons. This is especially true on the new AS50xx airfoil.

This is untried, and I don't know if the cost per person is advantageous or
not, but in the interest of diseminating information, here goes:

I won't argue that Troy saw an improvement in performance with the new wing,
but I found no advantage to adding gap seals to the RAF 48 airfoil.
Several years ago I tried the mylar film on my KR and carefully documented the
performance with and without the gap seals. In short, I found that i

Here is the deal.the group buy is off. Eric Pitts, one of the newest KR
family members has introduced me to a company where you may buy 11 ¼" wide
.010 Mylar at any length you want for .90 cents per foot up to 50 ft and .75
cents over 50 feet ($10 minimum). So, if you need gap seals, go to the

Another possible solution,
What about some of the great Model aircraft coverings, Very strong, made by
many different companies.
some are heat shrink, others dope shrink., but do not shrink , but use you
double sided tape
just my 2 cents worth.
Question
Is this fitted , so on full alieron trave
There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building
has expired.
