Default RE: Bvm Bob Cat Build thread!

Hi,

I am nearly finished with mine. Hopefully the maiden flight tomorrow.
My BC has the new JetCAT P-80 SE kerostart installed. (with 97N - a bit over 22lbs of thrust)

I am struggling with the flap throw and flap mixer settings, though.
I do not understand the recommendations of the BVM website on this.
Can one of you experts tell me how much flaps you use and how much elevator downtrim you mix in ?
Do you also mix in the aileron trim (crow braking ?) ?
Do you use the flaps on take-off ?

Best Regards,
Nicolas.
