I thought I would share the mods I've done for my UMX Timber.
I've seen lots of discussion about the vortex generators. Personally I think they make the ailerons more effective at slower speeds. They are space 1/2 inch apart. The location is around the same area that l used on my Mini-Guinea. I determined the best location on the Mini-Guinea base on a rudimentary wind tunnelish device I made.
Hope these mods help someone else's plane last longer.
- 1 strip of clear packing tape along the leading edge to reinforce the wing and a diagonal X brace on top of the fuselage since the wings seem a little weak near the flaps.
- 3d printed vortex generators in front of the ailerons.
- Tape on the bottom of the floats since our water is currently frozen. (snow)
