Default Rudder/Elevator ... Plus Flaps

I was wondering whether any of you chaps has flown a R/E model with flaps. If you have, were there any problems with that set-up?

The reason that I'm asking is that I want to build a large-ish Southerner to use as a glider tug ... towing vintage gliders. I'd like to keep the Southerner as authentic as possible, but it will definitely need some extra glide-path control; hence the flaps.
