Question adding RHCP to Cheap Yagi

Good Morning All:
I've been using a 10el version of Kent Britain's Cheap yagi for my 70cm
downlink antenna. It suffers from deep fades so I am going to add the
second yagi with physical offset to get to RHCP in the x config.
Question is:
normally I would reverse the coax connections to a dipole driver but
this is a hairpin (half of a folded dipole. )
Do I reverse the connections as normal? Kents instructions just say
offset the elements and feed in phase.
Thanks
Curt
