Feeling the desire to tinker, I was curious if applying some aerodynamic treatments to the outboard, non-slatted wing sections on the DRACO wing might get it to fly a touch slower. While it flies plenty slow, my hypothesis was that there could be laminar separation out at the wing tips causing it to wallow at really slow speeds. So, I added some zig-zag turbulator tape to intentionally trip the flow to turbulent at the tips as that would keep the flow attached longer. I think it did help get it a touch slower and get the AoA a little higher as well, but ultimately you can only get so close to 0 airspeed. You can be the judge, it was a fun experiment to try. :) #slowflight #DRACO #TheRCGeek
