Yes I know of one person that built a Sky Scoutthat trimmed the aileron slightly and said thathe thinks it improved the handling, I think he mayhave listed this change with the Buck Eye Pietenpolassociation but again I will not list his name on the netwith out his expressed permission. This is not to say thatPietenpols that didn't do this handle bad it's just that if you know of a slight mod that might make a little difference why not do it if it is not dangerous. This observation was not of my own design but come from an experienced builder who is about 75 yearsold and as they same if ya live to 75 flying and buildinghomebuilts then you probably ain't no fool!
