rsion I am not constrained by gear/flap geometry to determine the flap I ca
n deploy, since they will be electric. I feel I recall the tricycle underca
rriage versions can deploy 30 degrees of flap and I was wondering if someon
e with that amount could measure the length of their slots as a guide whils
t I remove the fuse material. I don't have the cross tube connected to the
flap motor as yet, and am doing it by sanding the slots incrementally as I
lower the flaps, as I didn't trust myself with the jig I made up. (I'm gett
ing tired of fixing my mistakes). =0AThanks in advance.=0ARegards=0ATony Re
