Hot Rod Todd

My Feedback: (1)

The Zero has split flaps. They provide a lot of drag, and a bit of lift. This plane should have light enough wing loading that flaps on take off would not help much. It's a good thing to do on a plane with high wing loading to improve the washout and lift, but the Zero shouldn't need it.

I will want plenty of throw on the flaps for landing. You can come in steeper or with more power, either way it makes it easier to hit your spot on landing. I always put my flaps on a slider and adjust based on the wind.
