Sup ya'll,
Does anyone have a better idea than the usual black rubber trim on RV6 wing fairing gaps?
Thanks

I had the fiberglas wingroot fairings on my first RV. I was advised to remove them as they had a lot of parasitic drag. I removed them and went to the standard setup and gained 8 knots. I know the rubber intersection piece can be a pain but it is still the best solution. You could always use duct tape.

I have the fairings on my wing roots on the 6A. They look great. I heard they slow you down. The gap is too large I think to go to the black rubber strip I've seen on other RVs. Does any one know what I might try? I can only get 170-2 MPH tops and I'd like to go faster. I'm a big fan of duct tape but not for this application.
