I haven't done this, but my former TW (SN 360) had received a
C-fuselage when it was owned by Martin Heide, and I had bought it
like this. Schleicher has issued a technical note on this (it's an
approved modification), so best would be to talk to them. You'll get
the best of two world's - the advantages of the C fuse, and the 55
deg flaps. The C wins offer no advantage whatsoever.
I had a C model for 11 years, and was under the impression the wings
were slightly different from the "A" wings, mainly to improve resistance
to spinning.
How would the C fuselage provide 55 degree flaps? I think the mechanism
is all in the fuselage, not in the wings.
