Rudder Turbulator Strips

[Jason]

Actually, it was 2- 90 degree plastic strips. It was put on there to keep
the tail on my FC Extra from wagging in flight. It was put on to be a drag
strip, but I don't know if that's the same as a turbulator. It worked and I
didn't notice a difference with or without as far as performance. I've since
put a 1/4" V plastic strip down the TE of the rudder for the same reason,
with the same results.

    I thought I read about 2 years ago that J.S. put a split piece of fuel
    tubing on the TE of his 33 or 40% fiberclassics airplane's rudder to get
rid
    of a tail shake or something like that?
