Several Genesis 2 owners used VG's on the wing root
and adjacent fuselage area (located at the high camber
point) They prevented the separation bubble from forming.
They do produce some drag, but solved the problem.
Later Bob Salvo showed us how to make a wing root &
fuselage fairing that did the same thing, but without
the drag of VG's. BTW the B-52 has them (VG's) all
over the outer wing panels just forward of the spoilerons
(no ailerons)

any other RN's out there?
