Default Wing droops on GP Gee Bee?!

Has anyone tried to add the hangar 9 p-51 pts clear wing droops to the GP Geebee. This should add more surface area and help with landings a little more correct. With a saito 1.25 my GP geebee should not come out no more than 10.5 lbs which is great. Let me know what you all think about this.

Has anyone tried them on anything other than the Hagar9 p-51 pts, and did you notice a difference in landing with the plane?

Hi!
It will naturally work on the GEE BEE as well as it works on any airplane! The question is: -Do you want to add those ugly things on such a beautiful airplane (its like cheeting)???
Best way to have the GEE BEE R-2 fly (land ) good is to build it light and use the lightest possible equipement on board.

I am only trying to use it on the first 5-10 flights so that I can get the hang of the landings again. I had a Gee bee before and I only got 4 flights. It was my fault that it crashed on the fourth flight because I put a saito 100 on it and the plane barley got off the ground, tip stalled and went nose first in the ground.
