They're also called "fast back" spoilers, although they don't really resemble a true fastback design.



Anyway, the pic conveys my idea... just taper it instead of straight back.
The red unit has too little wing at top,and sail panels on sides aren't long enough to be really effective,and they have no inward taper.Again,absolutely beautiful execution,but dubious performance.Too bad!
