Hmmm, I was thinking about the same thing. Ive heard some say they couldn't even get measured differences with and without reflectors. I was thinking, maybe I should remove all reflectors but the bottom two? Because they keep the areas right for expo flare as in:
I think I'd rather just have them all out though, but it makes the bit in the middle a lot bigger area than surrounding bits:
But I dunno if it matters. Technically it should make my path length a bit longer I think if I remove the reflectors, so thats good (stays flat and just goes even lower according to Hornresp, all good!).
So should I forget about all the reflectors and leave them out? If you say it'll be fine I believe ya. Hornresp doesn't seem to show much change anyway with a fatter 3rd segment... It will be so much less effort to build.
