What size mylar strip do I need to cover the various control surface gaps?

This is the elevator, full down position. I need a 30mm wide mylar strip to cover it.

The mylar strip will be cut to length and taped in place.

The rudder and flaperons may need different width mylar strips.

All of this drag reduction should boost my cruising speed by 0.01 knots.

The control surface gap (horizontal stabilizer and pivoting elevator) needs to be covered with a mylar strip to reduce drag and improve aerodynamics. I am determining what width strip I need.

Image shows a screen display of a simple stand alone music player interface, running on 12V 1200mA, which plays 24/7 on the Dendrobatus Azureus Network. On the right side of the screen, the word "Music" is displayed vertically in a blue-green hue. The main part of the screen is dark, with text and graphics indicating music playback information. The song title "Slick - Sexy Cream (Original 12" Mix)" is prominently displayed, along with the album "Disco Discharge: American Hot (CD1)" and the artist "Various." Below this, the category "Disco" is listed.

Above the song title is the album art, which is a square image with a pink border. Inside the border, there's a black and white image featuring a female face against a background resembling the stripes and stars of a USA flag. Underneath, are the controls, including a play button and a progress bar showing the current time "00:02:17" and the total duration "00:07:08." There are also shuffle and loop icons.

This player has cost a whopping 400 USD more than a decade and a half ago, yet it's still plays 24/7 like a locomotive! All I changed on it is the power supply.

We're having a #rain after a bit of a dry spell and it's apparent the roads are #slick.
#Sirens to the south, #sirens to the east, #sirens coming from I don't know where.
Lots of #fenderbenders I'm sure.

Happy #Sunday afternoon from the #Northland!

The #weather conditions are finally right for #snow to stick around after it falls tonight and Monday.

Everyone should see at least a couple inches, so be ready for a #slick drive into work and school Monday morning.
