Default adding ailerons on Sig Senior Kadet

I built mine with strip ailerons, dropped the dihedral to 1". For extra fun I put flaps on as well, with the flaps deployed, the plane will almost hover in a slight headwind. Makes for really fun landings! I had to modify the wing to bolt it on so I would not have to keep adjusting the radio trim. I beefed up the front of the cabin with triangle stock and 1/8 inch birch ply, rigged dowel to plug in at front, bolted the rear of the wing down. It has held up really well.
