Why not ask Glasfaser? They sell zig-zag turbulator tape in several
thicknesses and would surely know if it helps on a Kestrel and, if so,
where to put it. Its fitted to my Libelle and evidently makes a
difference: the BGA has separate handicaps for an H.201 and an H.201 with
turbulators: the latter is slightly increased.

Glasfaser are at http://www.streifly.de/
The site is dual language (German and English). I've found them to be
most helpful and easy to deal with.
