Yes, you need to use a protractor or else measure the movement of the trailing edge of the flap(s) using a ruler and plug the cord length of the flap, and the amount of movement into any Right Angle Calculator available on the web to convert the measurements into an angle.

Furthurmore, does anyone onow how I can use the buddy box with flaps (dx8 is maste, dx6i is slave)? I got them setup to some random position on the dx8, and some other position on the dx6i, but the dx6i has no control over flaps...
