Default RE: Control surface trailing edges

Flutter is more due to a loose control system.. Excess weight hanging on the hinges, or slop at the servo arm or the control surface horn, or a wimpy pushrod; than the shape of the trailing edges of the control surface.
The fancy trailing edge shown is intended to make that surface more effective. Whether it works or not only the user could say.
There is no MUST BE THUSLY on anything on a model.
