Simple solution.
As quoted 18 ltrs pr hour . Average .
Make more ' ultralight ' aircraft . If there was a push, to get small engined aircraft into the mainstream .
Fuel usage half that average , would surely reduce the ' c02 emissions.
Back to " AUF " .
IT SEEMS, that higher weight RAA wants , it's opposite to what is needed .

But why keep the round shape ( that you started with ).
Squashing it to an oval shape will lessen drag .
Many years ago , I made my own ' roof racks ' from 2" stainless , that I picked up heap . They looked shit when finished, so I squashed that pipe to 1" by whatever it was . Then everyone wanted those great looking aerodynamic roof-racks .
