It works in a LongEZ so it should be no problem in a big old spacious LNC2
or other.

I find the commercial options work fine too.  It may cost $3 or $4  bucks for a P factor scenario, but that's not the bad part.
The bad part is the physical gyrations and contortions required to  exercise any of the options in my...as you say...wee little Lancair.
Oh well, no one said life was easy  :)

Ahh, I made my reply before reading yours.  I am impressed by the
quantity
of towel you require.

The "P"  factor problem after drinking/eating can be minimized by carrying

good  quality zip-loc bag with a roll of toilet paper in it with the
roller
part  removed. It ain't pretty but it works. And upon arrival, just throw
it
away. You'd be surprised how much fluid a roll of toilet paper can  hold.

P Factor...Not a problem if you do not eat or drink  anything  prior to
a morning flight.  Got this from another  old pilot & flight surgeon,
and it worked for me for 5 hrs  ++
