The weather in Long Island has been great for flying so I have not spent as much time in the shop this week but I will bring you up to date with what I did so far.

I’m doing the flaps pretty much the way the plans show. I do plan to use two servos on each side. One for the inboard flap and one for the outboard one. The center flap is just behind the wheel cutout and I will use the tongue design on the plans move that one with the inner flap driving it. As I mentioned I will use G10 hinges in lieu of using aircraft ply tabs. The exception is the inner flap hinge will use an aircraft ply tab as it is fully supported.

Here is the Solidworks geometry so I can get the position of the horn correct.
