Hi
This is my first dip into the discussion group. Its been great watching from the sidelines.
I have a problem.
My Libelle aileron deflections were found to be out of whack mid season - max up deflection on right wing 15 deg rather than specified 20 +/- 1.
I got that sorted through Bob Fox at GCV.
Now in flight and in neutral setting each aileron is up about 3-4 degree is my estimate as viewed from the cockpit.
Now thinking about Form 2 this year and would like to know whether I should get this corrected and what sort of performance characteristics one can expect from such a setting, eg stall speed with my 75kg weight plus chute is about 38 knots; it settles very quickly after round out on landing and is hard to hold in a 45deg, 45 knot thermaling turn. Is there a compensating performance gain at higher speeds?
Any comments will be most welcome.
 
Regards
