Default RE: Flaps on Great Planes Cessna 182

Also, glad to say I have finally put the maiden flight (and six subsequent flights) on the cessna (only took 3 years!!!).

Flies great. Flaps have the same effect as they did on the top flite 82" version I built. You will need to mix in down elevator to get it to avoid balooning up when you deploy them.

Nice slow passes over the runway with the flaps down.

Have fun, post more pics when you get more work done. I like how you went even more scale looking than I did, rounding the top leading edges. Nice.
