Default wing tips

If it's worth your while to search on that other forum (the slow one) you can probably find the post within the last year or so concerning an end-plate experiment in which a modeler fitted removable end-plates, trimmed the plane with both end-plates on, then removed one and flew again. To get the model re-trimmed in the roll axis he reported two clicks of aileron correction were necessary. Two clicks is not a whole lot, but it is a more tangible result than many other popularly debated design mods.
