Your stall speed of 58 knots is the lowest I've heard of so far, but it is still 8 knots over the advertised speed. One of the primary reasons I bought an ES is its advertised stall speed, which puts me in sort of a dilemma. No one as commented on my flap strake idea, but more important to me is that no one has advised against it, so I'm going for it and I'll see what happens. I've primed the bottoms of my wings with UV Smooth prime and sanded it already, but have decided to wait a year before I completely finish it out to see if shrinks. I ordered some WLS primer yesterday to do the rest of the plane, so I will be able to give a report on the results in about a year.
