I'm going to be building a Great Planes P-51 mustang kit. I was thinking of adding flaps to it. To accomplish this I was thinking of cutting the strip aileron in half, using the inside half as flaps and the outside half as the ailerons.

Anybody have any thoughts on this? Would this model benefit from flaps?

I was also thinking of extending the inside of the wing back and making split flaps?

Would this be worth the extra effort?
