Default Offset fixed blade question

Having read an article on Lancaster Archery about bare shaft spin - it seems my new easton arrows spin counterclockwise (left - because of the string). Have always fletched right with my Bitzenburger.

Quote from Lancaster
"An exception would be if these are hunting arrows, and you are shooting fixed-blade broadheads which have the blades set at an offset - which is almost always a right offset. Fletch to match the blade offset regardless of the results of your bareshaft test so your broadhead and your fletchings can work together to promote arrow spin."

I know the blades are short on my Wasp Drones - but damn they look straight.

My assumption is - If the Drones are straight - is this worth the extra expense of purchasing a left helical for my jig?
