Default RE: Flaps!

sandal said it best so far. One thing to remember is the main reason for flaps is to increase the angle of descent without increasing speed. The main thing to remeber is that if you retract the flaps to quickly without increasing airspeed you WILL stall. Remember this if you have a go-around, the plane will fly and climb with full flaps (R/C aircraft are overpowered.)
