Default RE: Slottet flaps

Here's a couple of pictures of my project. The plane is 95 inches and I'm going to use a 120 Surpass Pumper!

I've added a 1" inch piece of 1/64" ply for my top trailing edge. Any advice on my design or pictures would be greatly appreciated!

As far as the actual pivot location for the flap, I think if you use the point where the flap is the thickest, seems to get me the closest to achieving a small gap at the trailing edge of the wing. Now I'm still working on the distance from the bottom of the wing where flap hinge will pivot, so there is two locations that need to be determined.
