Actually, once the notch filter was adjusted such that the wing did not

Uh... excuse me, but what's a "notch filter" in this context?


In the feedback control system of the X-29 was a z-transform type filter at
3.2 Hz. This was a simple third order filter in the original airframe.
Once the filter was altered to eliminate the flutter problem on the second
airframe, there was no manuverability advantage. The first airframe having
a delaminated wing by that time.
