The mods happened to cut drag a small amount (no measurement was offered)but the premise was stability,not drag reduction.
I'd vote with the 'leave it all on ' crowd.
Great, thanks for the info. I'll leave that stuff as is. I'm going to leave it as low as it is now, but add some new arms to level out the camber.
