Hi Joe
How did you stiffen up the flapperons??? Did I miss an earlier post??
I went back through the digests and am curious.
I have flutter problems also.................

Decided to provide a quick report on flight testing of my
ex flutter-bird. The 4 or so grams of weight added was
definitely worth it! The plane launches so much better,
and even gained some handling at speed due to a
reduction in aeroelastics on the flaperon. I'll have to
do some dead air times with it now that I can throw it
full power without a hint of flutter. I'll do the same routine
on a couple of other wings shortly and collect some
data. I'm curious about before/after weight, and more
importantly, torsional stiffness of the flaperons before
and after the sock is installed.
