    Default Flaperon choice

    I ordered flaperons from Kitfox and now I am contemplating my choice. I had the choice between "A-Symetrical" and just plain "Symetrical". Being new to Kitfoxes, I am wondering what the differences between the two are and if it is worth going for the A-symmetrical as opposed to going with the original Symmetrical like I ordered. Debra explained that most go with the original (Symmetrical) on the Classic 4 but I would like to find out first what exactly is the difference and second, recommendations from people that have tried them both. Thanks.

    The Symmetrical flaperons give you lighter control forces, and possibly a faster roll rate, at least you think it is faster, they also put a much bigger smile on your face. The A-Symmetrical flaperons give the plane a more certified feel.
