Default RE: Joining Split ailerons?

Don't bother. Just make the flap portion immovable.
Joining the two doubles the load on the servo.
The added inboard portion contributes little to the rolling moment because the center of the surface moves inboard.
The normal ailerons will be more effective as they are.
