Default RE: GP .40 Cub Clipped Wing w/Flaps

Primarily I will be flying off a runway, but our club has float days at the local lake or reservoir that I have not been able to participate in. The float set is a Great Plane ARF sport float kit for .40-.60 I will be powering with a OS .60 2 stroke so i don't think i will have any power issues even with the floats. I know I will never need the flaps from the runway but I thought it may be a good idea to have them with the floats since I am clipping the wings.

How much of the ailerons should I cut back and add to the flaps? I am planning on using the bellcrank from the ailerons to control the flaps and install a servo for each aileron.
