The servo that comes with our Europa has a 10-position LED light which will
report the position of the flap. If you have electric flaps, then you
already have it, since it comes with the kit.
If not, the same company that manufactures the electric servo's to move the
flaps also has a sensor that you can mount to the flap mechanism (whether
you have electric flaps or not), that can be used to provide positioning
data.

Subject: Europa-List: Electronic Flap position indicator
Has any member tried to install a flap position indicator rather than rely
on the actual markers on the flaps themselves?
There are various types of panel mounted indicators available and combined
with a sensor on the flap actuating tube it should work ok.
I am just fishing for ideas
