 3/10/18  Andy, I'm flying our 601XLB that we purchased some time back. Not really thrilled with the control harmony and have been considering adding spades also.  just wondering how they worked out. Thanks for your input.   Jim Weseman . ( jsweseman.com )

Nicely worked out arrangement, Andy! I have been considering spades just to lighten up the ailerons, but now we also have this flutter business, and the same arm can hold balance weights. Have you flown it with the spades? Are the ailerons less ponderous? I would love prints, if you have any, or more pictures or any other information/building proceedures you may have. Please? Thank you!
