Just an observation on the gap seal issue. I had a gap seal/wiper come off during a
heat race with a 424 plane. The plane was WAY out of trim with the 1 side wiper
missing. After I got home and replaced the wiper, the trim changed back to where it
was prior to it departing the wing. I was really surprised that it would have this much of an effect
on the way the plane flew. Do they make the plane faster? Who knows, but it sure did
change the trim.
