AS im sure most know on here, i have a sadler vampire.
though today i have discovered a small problem with storage, the aircraft is just 2 inches wider than my garage door when its on the trailer.
now i got to thinking, the Vampire has a Symmetrical airfoil profile, and drooped wing tip fairings, as seen here
my question is..
Can the wingtip fairings be swapped sides so that the tips sweep Up instead of down? i am assuming they will look similar to the wingtip of the Cheetah Joey 2 or super diamond.
will this create any aerodynamic changes? or improvements?
if the tips are reversed then they will point inward creating enough clearance to get through the doors, and also reduce the chances of damage while its on the roads.
