Default Lanier 80" CAP232 ARF wing flutter

Terry,

My wing tube sockets were loose in the wing panels to begin with. After contacting Lanier they offered a fix but would not replace the wings. I begrudgingly applied the fix and both wings were rock solid. I never bothered to check incidences as the airplanes flew great, floated in for landings, and showed no bad tendencies at all. Stalls were straight ahead and level with no inclination to drop a wing. I also had sealed the aileron hinge gaps. I don't know what to do. Lanier is not answering my e-mail. I wouldn't mind another CAP but I hesitate to spend over $400 on kit and not know why there is a problem.
