Default Flaps

I'm using a Futaba 6XAS and had to set the flaps up on channel 5. Even at a real slow pass when I activate just the flaps it will climb almost straight up. I've programed in some down elevator to the flaps and haven't tried it yet. I'm just wondering if it's normal to climb that steep with the flaps down on a slow pass or if there was too much deflection in the flaps.

I'm new to the flaps and the crow feature but loving the plane more every day. To activate the crow I have to activate the flaps and the airbrake. What should I expect?
