Which consequence results downstream when the Reynolds number increases significantly in an aircraft's hydraulic servo?

💡 Explanation

Elevated Reynolds number indicates a transition to turbulent flow. Turbulent flow introduces energy dissipation via increased frictional losses due to viscous effects; therefore, flutter risk increases because the servo response oscillates, rather than providing stable control related to design.
