Sluggo,

I'd suggest putting one of the Hangar 9 inline current monitor meters on each of the flap servos so you can see how much current is actually being drawn. Some high-performance servos will buzz but not pull tons of current .. that's really what you need to know - a little buzzing with low current draw is no problem. The H9 meter is a very good investment for setting up jets in case you don't already have one...

Also, I usually set the mechanical mid-point of my servos on flaps to the mid-flap position to be able to get a good mechanical setup at either full-up or full-down .. but this depends a lot on the gemoetry of your flap horns which you may not be able to do much about. Can you post some pics?
