Default RE: Readyfly Cessna with flaps

Jim, do you keep them down the entire time while landing to touch down or do you use them as brakes and retract them as you reach landing speed. I heard that ailerons, when used as flaps, will cause tip stall after a certain point. That is why I want to split the ailerons so that only the inboard sections droop, as real flaps, and the tips will be in neutral position to assist wing stability.
