Has anyone documented a speed increase when changing from the traditional spring setup to any of the single tail link designs??

I had one on my -6. No increase in actual speed, but I knew it was
faster because it looked so cool

0.001 Knot (+/- 1.2 Knots)

But Tom is right - it LOOKS so much faster!

Chains that will just slow you down!

At least 5 knts.

I'm with Wayne

I'm with Wayne on this one. The purchase of my JDair tail steering link will get you some speed www.jdair.com. Okay, it will just look faster than clunky chains hanging off of there.

Seriously, I don't think you'll experience any speed gain (or at least be able to measure it.) Building aerodynamically clean will get you the most benefit in the speed world.
