REFLECTOR: Ailerons

I just remembered, the first few sets of wing foam shipped from the factory (like mine) had a little dihedral. That would have contributed to the need for a u-joint. So maybe when they started making straight wings they just left the u-joint there in the plans, and then years later realized they didn't really need the u-joint anymore.

  Doug,


  Thanks for sending that manual page, that's really helpful.  So the original "short wing" was quite a bit shorter (50" instead of 72"), so maybe it was more important then.
