Default RE: help me understand aileron "flutter"

Many racing airplanes use torque rods because it is clean and light. It just needs to be done right. With torque rods in my Shrike 40 and a Jett 50 I could do a terminal velocity dive without flutter after mods to correct issues. The larger control surface size does take some work.
