Default RE: Flaperons- how exactly does it work?

You have less aileron authority. Meaning that you will have less roll control when you need it the most. I steer clear of that sort of setup. Some may argue that it is fine, but just think about it... you push both ailerons down, lets say 10 degrees. Now you have 10 degrees less movement available for your ailerons. Personally, I prefer all of my ailerons available on landing.
